The most popular DCC systems here in the UK appear to be Lenz, Digitrax and
ZTC (in that order?) However, purely out of interest, I wonder if anyone
might know what the equivalent- sellers in the US are?

I assume that Lenz and Digitrax have a presence (but probably not ZTC)- any
others? Which is the most widely- used system? Also, if there is a system
out there that I have not mentioned, is it available here in the UK?

Purely out of interest and comparison's sake, that's all.

I'm going to guess that Digitrax is the most widely used in N.A. I dont
think ZTC is even in the running......NCE is another popular brand over
here...and LENZ decoders are widely used.

Here in South Afirca it's mainly Digitrax due to the excellent dealer
support. I've seen one or two Lenz setups and and one easy DCC
I was the only ZTC user until I swopped to Digitrax and I
have no regrets.
