How to add sound to my Niagara 4-8-4 DCC engine #6020

[Trainuser]

I want to add sound to my DCC equiped engine. Can you purcahse the tender with sound in it? Does Bachmann sell a kit? Please Help

If the engine is already DCC equipped, all you have to do is by a new decoder with sound and a speaker. Install the speaker, usually in the tender and you're done.

Bachmann does not sell sound decoders. They only sell three sound "Module" for three specific locos.
Do yourself a favor and  look at the Product Listing at the top of the page.
They have never sold tenders with sound. Only DCC ready and none for sale right now.

Store the below link in Favorites. He has a lot of good DCC info. Take time to look though all his links.
With DCC, never, ever make assumptions. There are to many variables.

Thanks for the input. I am looking to install a DigiTrax SDH-164D to get sound. Does anyone know how to wire the Cam input to the engine? Can I use the existing wiring? I am new to this and the old guys at my train club are not much help. Any help would be great. Maybe someone out there knows of a better way.....
