Can you please tell me whether Thomas is available DCC Ready or fitted in the USA?
I can provide the ansswer, the locomotives are not fitted with DCC, it can be easily installed though, but not ready. plus if it's USA fitted as in with knuckle couplers then no, they have european "Hook and Loop" couplers. this subject has been brought up and this answer is pretty staight forward so if this topic could be avoided then we won't have any trouble or confusion, if anyone asks just look for this topic because we do get questions like that and it'll be easier if they're just said on the "Everything Thomas" subject. it'll be easier on the computer system.

They do not have DCC sockets fitted as standard: they come as DC only.
Fitting a DCC chip requires some basic soldering and some inventive fitting given the normally small space under the boilers of each model.
