I know they are old, but I love the look of the various Spectrums. I was looking at getting either one of these two engines: 86019 or 86030. I was wonder which one is DCC Ready, or has DCC On-Board.
The Dash 8-40C is 'DCC Ready', the Dash 8-40CW is 'DCC Equiped'.

I was hoping for that. I had bought a Norfolk Southern one a couple of years ago that had a gorgeous shell, but the chassis was one of the old split frames. I don't want to have to deal with that again.
On a related note: Why did Bachmann jump their model numbers around with regards to the engines being DC, DCC Ready, or DCC? I've seen 85000 series that are DCC, while some 86000 series are still DC. It's pretty annoying to have to guess what type of engine one is when there isn't a logical progression.

Only the powers above at Bachmann can answer that one. Maybe someone there just likes making people come to the forums to ask about it.
