Title: HOW TO CONVERT BACHMANN HO DCC TURNOUTS TO DC OPERATION
Post by: RSA445 on December 24, 2024, 05:43:50 PM
I have just been given a dozen bachmann dcc turnouts. But I have a dc layout with Bachmann turnouts.  Is there a way to modify the dcc turnouts to operate well on my dc Layout?  My existing turnouts are all #4 (for yards) and #5 for mainline: medium sized layout: 9' X 12" plus a 4' X 4' dog leg (L SHAPED). Thank you in advance for you help.  Robert

Not sure there is a way. At the bottom of the item description for the DCC turnouts listed in the Bachmann on-line store it says, "*not designed for DC-powered layouts". And I don't see any socket to plug the analog control plug from a regular turnout into on the DCC version.
