Yes. This unit is equipped with a 28-speed step decoder, factory programmed. Brand new. There are 3 small metal objects in a stamp sized bag. No idea where they go or what the're for.

I picked up this Nickel Plate engine at an expo not knowing about DCC. I have a conventional layout and after attaching the two plugs from the tender to the locomotive all I get is dim lights. The engine doesn't run. How can I make this work on my layout?
