DCC advice

[hcopter51]

I hope I have not asked this before so please bear with me.....I have a 4x7 small HO layout and will run two consists at one time...Probably will not expand as most of my basement is taken up by S Gauge ......Have 3 Deisel loco's and a steam loco that are analog..... Should I even consider DCC? If so,which one would you folks advise given the info above? I would probably have decoders installed by someone in the above loco's.....What do you think?? Thanks in advance for your thoughts.....

If you plan on having them run in circles, then DC analog will work just fine.
Since your S scale is most likely analog DC then you know what that is like.

Any layout with lots of switching and more then one operator benefits from DCC in my opinion.
I use DCC even though I am the only operator at this time.
It lets me easily switch from any engine to another any where on the layout with no thought as to if a power block is on or off. 
Or if the engines on the same track and next to each other.
My opinion is from originally having DC on my first layout and knowing I did not want to do that again. Way to much work.

I have a simple 2 track oval
I wanted sound so I buy DCC/sound
Even though you get the sound on DC
I forked out the extra $$ for a DCC Controller NCE since it was a one time deal and the trains run better in DCC and you have control over the Whistle/Horn and bell etc
