You know if everyone was friendlier and not all about themselves we would probably have more members and not evening having this argument.. I vote leave the dates as is if you cant work them or don't like it then don't work those days!! Sounds pretty simple to me.. I have both dcc and dc if there is anyone that does not have enough equipment i am more then happy to share what i have to run.. The club is about the visitors not about the members in reality..   

Thanks!!  

Cheers!!

DC powers 1 side at a time and alternates sides for direction plus uses the throttle to dictate speed.

DCC powers only 1 side but continuously at full power and the chip controls speed.

If either accidentally ran into the other, at minimum it would suddenly stop or go full speed. Worse case it would fry.

This is almost the same as what I did last year except I alternated modes on weekends both days at a time.

It seems there's always people unhappy or that would prefer a different mode on certain days. I think with so many of us and our schedules so different, it's never going to please everyone. 

Perhaps a project we want to discuss is isolating some areas like interurban and/or the reverse loop and/or adding some track to isolate passenger from freight?

 The quick answer is "no".  The main power switchover, toggled by the master switch on the far left side of the dispatch console, is either set for DCC or DC.  There are many reasons for this restriction, but basically you cannot currently run DCC and DC at the same time.  The only exception is in the City trolley loop, which is feed by separate independent power supply.

 I have a quick question and might be stupid, but isnt it possible to run both? If you have someone dispatching like normal analog cant they just use the last button and run dcc?          

 Thanks!!          

 Cheers!!
