Title: 4-4-0 Modern American Richmond
Post by: EandR Pres on January 29, 2011, 11:14:32 PM
I purchased one of these engines, Item No. 83403 which is equipped with DCC.  I want to know if it is possible to add a sound decoder to this item.  If so, how and what do I need?

Right at the SoundTraxx site as was suggested. Save the lnik. You will need it.
Part numbers are shown.
Micro Tsunami and 28mm speaker.
About $120.00. Litchfield Station has the stuff and good prices, and decent shipping.
I will let you find the items. Not difficult at all.
The decoder comes shrink wrapped, not like the picture of the decoder that you see at the site.
I have done some of these. It is a tight fit. I hope you have soldering experience. It is NOT plug & play.

Moot point now. The Favorite Spot has it with Factory sound for $200.00.

I just purchased the Spectrum 4-6-0 with Factroy sound for $160.00.
