RDD Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 Can I convert an analog engine using a Hornby decoder to run with Hornby elite controller. If possible can you also use sound decoder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rog RJ Posted November 15, 2019 Share Posted November 15, 2019 The Bachmann 31-609 version of the V3 is a split chassis model and would be quite difficult to convert to DCC. It can be done, apparently, but not a simple job for the inexperienced. Fitting a sound decoder would be even more difficult. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
