Flashbang Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 HiYes it can be done.But the loco MUST run faultlessly on dc power before conversion is considered. Any hesitancy to start or poor running needs correcting as if poor on dc it will likely become far worse on DCC!Next, the choice of decoder. You will need the Hornby Sapphire or another make capable of 1.0Amp motor power.Conversion of this models motor was covered here....https://www.hornby.com/forums/hornby-forums/hornby-digital/825/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
