Note: Digitrax Starter Sets do not include mobile decoders
or power supplies. There are a wide variety of DCC decoders
available today and some are made to fit specific locomotives.
Some decoders have more features and cost more money and some
are less expensive with fewer features. Your Digitrax authorized
dealer will be able to assist you in choosing the “right”
decoder for your layout. Click here to visit our mobile
and stationary decoder
selection pages. There are many different power supplies that
you can use to power your Digitrax system and you may already
own an appropriate power supply so rather than force you to
purchase a power supply you may not need, we leave that decision
up to you and your dealer. Click here to learn about Digitrax
power supplies that are available. DT400 Super
