I have a 2-4-4 Forney with DCC and sound. newly purchased.
The loco runs OK and the light dims OK but which Function number should start the sound ?
Tried them all with no result.
maybe there's a hidden switch ?
Regards to all from New Zealand.

Thanks for that.
here's a quote from the All Model Railroading website about poor pickup
"change out those 0-4-0 plunger springs for Kadee freight truck springs for a better pick-up, longer life and resistance to shorts!"

Maybe by adding some weight.
I'd like to know how to DCC the Porters.
