Hi, could I just piggy back on this thread…..Like others I too have seen this recent 009 stuff and am thinking about a small layout. I have the same questions re track - I use C & L for my 0 gauge layout but they dont do 009 - so will probably settle for Peco and bury it in ballast and muck, bonding the joints with fine wire as fishplates. But my question is more around DCC. Fitting chips and sound in Heljan 0 gauge I can do all day long, but what are the possibilities with 009. I note that the Fairlie is available as DCC so it can be done, but what about other models. Are they available as DCC or can they be retro fitted. Are they available as plug and play or do you need to hard wire them. Presumably there are some tiny sugar cube speakers out there….with 0 gauge I go for biggest I can get in! Any thoughts appreciated, DCC is the preferred route, it makes the wiring so much easier.
