Thanks guys, I had a feeling the question would bring up the "is dcc ac or dc" subject. I'm not an elec eng either. But since the LC engines (at least the later versions) will run on ac or dc, it seems logical that they could use dcc for power as long as the capacitors after the bridge are large enough to absorb any dc spikes remaining. Thinking about it, I suppose I could have recreated and tested the LC track power circuit on dcc (with a load) to see if there is/was any ripple/noise getting through. It might still be a fun experiment. Anybody know what value caps the laterst LC locos use?
