announce1You need to decide which decoder you want to install... Do you just want control & lights, or do you also want sound? Does your analog PCB include a DCC socket with a dummy plug installed? If so, you can use a decoder with a DCC plug - just pull out the dummy plug and insert the decoder's plug. If you don't have a DCC socket, you need a "wired" decoder (no plug) - this is slightly less expensive. Along with your decoder, you will get a manual that includes all the info you need to install the decoder, including directions on which colored wire gets connected to the wires already in your locomotive.Amrap1 said:I have a Bachmann Chessie C&O 4127 HO loco that I want to wire for DCC. I can't find any info anywhere!

Yes, it should be easy! Must not even have lights...right?Amrap1 said:It's diesel. There are only 4 wires....Black and white from front wheels/motor and the same on rear wheels. The PC board between has NO diodes/resistors. I want to believe that it would/should be the easiest loco to convert.
