Hey everyone!

You may know as DCC Sodor or Blake on YouTube and other platforms!  I wanted to start a new thread as I know I'm not the only one who installs DCC in their models.  But I'd like to share what I've done here as long as have others do the same!

Feel free to show off your own models!

I've inserted a YouTube video showcasing my latest installation.

Hey everyone! Back again to share my latest video on the DCC and Sound Thomas and Percy, Chaz was very kind to lend me his models (which I installed lights in for him).  Let me know your thoughts either here or on YouTube!

Thank you!

Definitely worth the watch if you guys haven't seen it already. DCC Sodor goes into great detail about the sound and quality of each of the engines. Although I paid more than I would have liked for these engines, I'd say they're worth picking up if you have DCC on your layout or club layout with DCC already installed.

I do hope Bachmann addresses the issue someday regarding sounds being available for other engines, either by introducing a separate sound module in HO like they did with large scale or, at the very least, by adding more engines with DCC and sound in the future. Considering the sales that DCC Thomas and Percy have had, it's clear the market for HO DCC Thomas models is there. It would easily be worth the investment for them, especially if they introduce modules, as sales for those would likely skyrocket and help more people get into that aspect of the hobby.
Modeler of HO/OO, OO9 and N scale.  Hoping for N scale Edward, Duck, coal wagon with load, and a BR 20 ton brake van.
