Will the Spectrum 2-10-2 DCC operate on DC systems like the Spectrum n-scale 2-6-6-2 DCC.?? I have, but not installed, a DCC system, and am running,(more or less) DC at present. Any info. will be most appreciated.

Bachmann decoders are dual mode when installed at the factory. They will operate on DC layouts. Most require a little extra throttle in DC, but that's normal.

Regards,

Jonathan

they do run way better in dcc and some times the decoder becomes glitchy and won't run too well in comparison to an engine always run on dcc.
