Yes

This link shows what to do.

An f7 "B" unit is shown, but it is the same chassis in the "FT A & B".

Any brand decoder will work as long as it fits the space.

You will have to hard wire the decoder.

Happy RR'ing.

If you feel that space is an issue you can use a Z Scale decoder. Digitrax makes one that I use quite often, the DZ125. It's robust enough to stand up to most HO equipment. I use them in Athearn BB locos.
