G scale, battery, radio controlled Thomas

[Choo Choo 51]

I'm a newbie to battery, radio control. I have an NCE GWire controller, and would like to know if anyone has converted Thomas to battery power? If so what decoder, and sound card do I use. Thanks for any help.

I'm starting in radio control too, but I am using a Futaba 72 mghz control and reciever, now I am saving up to a module that controls speed of the locomotive. anyway I don't know much about that sort of stuff.

Hey Guys!

I've got the stuff, just need the time to get my big Thomas converted.

Here is a post from Large Scale Central that may be of some help!
