Title: EZ track turnouts question
Post by: CBB1984 on December 13, 2023, 12:33:19 PM
I want to upgrade my simple loop and have been looking at EZ track turnouts. I run DC but may upgrade to DCC eventually. My question is can I run the DCC equipped turnouts or crossover turnouts on DC or must I use the remote ones? Thanks.

You don't have to run them off DCC even if the rest of your layout is DCC. I find it easier to use the traditional way of wiring them with a control panel and the pushbuttons. With DCC EVERYTHING is assigned a number (address) and I find trying to remember all that is more trouble than it's worth.
