I own a Bachmann 2-8-0 engine. I just pruchased a Bachmann K-27 engine. I installed the QSI decoder, sound and radio receiver in it with great results. I wish to install the same system in the 2-8-0 engine. I have not removed the boiler to take a peek inside the boiler to see if the board will accept a decoder such as the QSI system but according the exploded veiws it appears there are not a receptable to plug the decoder into?

Can this engine be set with the QSI system? According the the literature from Bachmann the 2-8-0 is supposed to be DCC Ready. I love this engine but presently running it on the Aristo Engineer using varialbe track voltage. I love the way the K-27 runs so well with the QSI system I would like to install the QSI system in the 2-8-0.

I will greatly appreciate your help in this matter.

Thanks, Elwin
