Spectrum 4-8-2 Lt Mtn, Item # 81660 - DCC Conversion???

[arcy]

Can anyone tell me if a Spectrum Item #81660 (4-8-2) Light Mountain (Southern) can be converted to DCC?
If possible, could you provide the Digitrax Decoder which can be used, and where conversion instructions can be found.

Thanks in advance for your reply and associated info.

The install is fairly easy and straight forward. The worst part is putting the boiler back on when you are done.

The decoder in the loco. There is a removable weight to make room for the decoder. Under the weight are the motor and headlight leads screwed ot the frame. A DZ125 fits with room to spare.

Thanks for the info. Now all I have to do is fiigure how to take the boiler off in the first place.

I have a 125 available so it's now a matter of labor and technique. Appreciate your reply.
