HELLO. I HAVE A REGULAR DC LAYOUT FOR THE "SOUTHERN RAILROAD" CAN I ADD SOUNDS TO MY ENGINES EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE NOT DCC EQUIPPED? HOW ABOUT QSI SOUND SYSTEMS? THANKS.
QSI does not sell there sound system seperatly but you can get and MRC HO steam sound modul and wireless controller. They list it at $84.98. They claim if your Engine is DCC ready it plugs right in.

Internatioal Hobby Corp. makes a "Sound Car" in HO. It makes a chuff sound of sorts. It is triggered by closing a switch (actuallly a plated spot on a truck axle). You should be able to come up with a similar triggering method on your loco.
If you will be satisfied with just chuff sound, the car is only $20.
