MTH Scale Wheel Steam Conversion Or Replacement DCS Board

Hi Everyone,

I'm finding it somewhat of a battle to find 2 rail steam locomotives with DCC and sound. Even 20 year old units go for $1,200 low end and way up from there. Once in awhile I'll see 2 rail scale wheel MTH steamers for sale $1,100 to $1,500 with sound and smoke etc. My big concern is what if A DCS board goes out? I had that happen on a few MTH 3 rail locos in the past. Do any of you run MTH 2 rail scale wheel models? Can you still buy a DCS board or is there a better way to convert MTH to DCC with sound? Thank you.
