DCC – Loco DCC Address number Cheat Sheet

If you have a reasonable number of locomotives in your model fleet it can be easy to forget which DCC address you’ve allocated your locos. It’s worth keeping a quick reference list of your loco DCC addresses by your DCC Comand station (DCC train controller). I keep my locomotives DCC addresses on printed sheets on the wall for ease of viewing.

As a backup, it’s worth writing the locomotive address number either on the model box or on the supplied service info sheet that comes with the model.

Keeping this DCC loco address list cheat sheet is very handy. It’s amazing how many modellers don’t record down their loco address numbers, & sometimes forget a loco address number!!
