Hello Everyone--
Much has been written on DCC for operating our trains and turnouts. My question is: has anyone experienced connecting stationary decoders (I believe that's the appropriate name) to Bachmann's remote (electric) EZ-track #5 turnouts (or another size turnouts)? What equipment did you use? Manufacturer? Approximate price? Results, Etc.?
I realize Bachmann plans to introduce some time soon DCC controlled turnouts, but what about folks like me who have already invested a lot of money in remote EZ track turnouts and crossovers? I am sure many of you out there are in the same boat.
Furthermore, and this may be a question for the Bach Man, can remote switches be retrofitted for DCC capability?
Thanks for your input.

All you need is a stationary decoder to control standard turnouts, some can control up to 4 turnouts others only 1 turnout.
Go to the Digitrax home page at www.digitrax.com . On the right-hand side of the page you'll see a menu. Click on Stationary Decoders. You can read about features and download a manual. Hope this helps.
I have several DS 64 units, they work like a charm.
