What exactly is that smell?

Don....You really should give DCC a try.

A little over a year ago, I was convinced that I had no need for DCC, but I decided to try it out and have never looked back. The NCE Power Cab is an outstanding DCC throttle and costs less than most HO locomotives. For a few dollars, you can pop a decoder in most locomotives, so you're not looking at that much of an initial expense, unless like many of us, you find yourself purchasing sound equipped loco's. Another nice feature of DCC. Operating a sound equipped loco on DC just doesn't get it.

I put inexpensive decoders in two Athearn CF-7's I had (took about 15 mins) and it instantly turned what were so-so running locomotives into great running locomotives.

Give it try!!!
