I'm retired and have taken up N gauge for something worthwhile to help pass the time! I am very interested in the Spectrum #81662 4-8-2 - NC&StL - that is advertised as "DCC Ready". Does this mean there is a circuit board in the tender, as I've seen photos of in some of the discussion topics. Also, I was wondering whether all eight tender wheels have pickups? I do hope someone out there can help.
Hi jdha,
Welcome to the hobby.
The light mountain is a beauty and a fine runner.
The short answer to both your questions is yes.
There has been much discussion here about this lokie.
I love mine.
Welcome to the forum!
Thank you Ron.
Thank you James In FL - I shall go ahead and buy the loco (when I can find where I put the plastic!!).

This is the best price I've found, and great to do business with as well.
Shop around.
