Installation Notebook:
DCC installed in N-Scale Mallet (LifeLike)

One of the finest running N steamers, this loco takes to DCC easily. The Lenz fits inside the boiler nicely. Bruce likes to replace the LifeLike light board with a single resistor, but retain the exiting bulb.
This install used a LE0521W decoder, which has been replaced with the Lenz GoldMini-W.
