Life Like GP9's...

Hi All,

I just opened up a magazine to find that Pacific Western Rail Systems is offering both CP and CN Chop-Nose GP-9's as an exclusive to Canada made by Life Like. They're expensive, being listed at $158.95 each (these days, about $120 US). I've been looking to include a GP-9 or two on my upcoming layout as a switcher. I really have 2 questions.

1. Are Life-Like locomotives any good?
2. How easy is it for these to be upgraded to DCC?
3. Is this worth investigating?
