I would like to run my SBB 175 loco 37875 on the layout. This Loco is marked as having DCC fonctionality in the manual. Do I have to do anything to prepare for running on the club ZIMO layout and will I have any problem running my loco on my own layout afterwards which is Marklin MFX. Do you have any suggestions / recommendations ? Thanks Tim

On returning home, the loco was recognised but the functionality was not OK. I deleted the loco from my CS3 and reinstalled it, now it performs correctly. Tim
