Mr Bachmann

I have read the other thread and I want to express a different opinion.  If I  understand this you are intending to offer us a socket similar to the one used by AristoCraft in their locomotives.  If true this will be fantanstic!

I currently run on track power but intend to go RC or DCC n the future.

If  I understand this correectly, I can purchase a QSI sound board now that plugs right into the socket and get sound for my locomotives now and later when I am ready I can choose to go DCC or Radio Control if I just plug in the QSI receiver.

What could be simplier

And I can do this myself without the need of a high cost installer.

Which locomotives will have this socket?

Plug and play
