I recently purchased the HO McKinley Explorer and HO Durango & Silverton train sets at a train show. Does the Durango & Silverton have DCC "on Board"? The box does not mention it but the catalogue indicates it is equipped with DCC. The McKinley express appears not to have DCC.
I then purchased 6 turnouts not compliant with DCC controlers. My Speed Controler is capable of powering only one accessary at a time. I need an additional power source for my 6 turn outs? What do I do? What do I need to power my turnouts? What are my options to oder?
I had planned on using blocking so I could run one train on an inner loop and one train on an outter loop without going to DCC.
Will blocking work? What do I need to order to block?
Do I need to go to the DCC system?Will I loose the cost of 6 turnoffs and cost of at least one train set if I go to DCC.? What do I need to buy if I switch to DCC system? What do I need to buy to go in this direction?
