sound in 4-6-0 and 4-4-0

Does Bachmann intend to sell sound equipped versions of the spectrum 4-6-0 and 4-4-0?

I hope so! A dcc/sound 4-6-0 would make me quite happy.

I have a Spectrum Richmond 4-4-0 and I removed the stock DCC power decoder and pc board. I installed a SoundTraxx DSD-100LC light steam decoder. The tender is ready for a one inch speaker. I suspect the 4-6-0 Spectrum is the same since it comes DCC ready.
The DSD decoder is going to be replaced with a SoundTraxx Micro-Tsunami, a much better decoder.

Be sure to let us know how the installation goes Rich.

The installation was done six months ago. It works very well. I have already installed a Micro in a Roundhouse 2-6-0 DCC ready loco. The Micro has excellant motor control and most of the features of the standard Tsunami. The Spectrum will be changed from a DSD to a Micro.
I rather not say much more as I am talking about other manufactures. If you want more info, search the 'Net for Micro Tsunami and Tsunami.
