I want to convert this N scale DC ONLY car to run on DCC. The DCC voltage from my Power Cab is 12.4v. This makes the motor run at high speed as if it were 12VDC. I don't want to tear out the electronics and wire in a DCC decoder like numerous YouTube videos do. Can I add a diode (half wave) and maybe a resistor across motor input voltage to reduce the motor speed? If so, what would the DC voltage to the motor be? Any approach is welcomed.
