Hi all,

I am new to the forum and was hoping for some help with converting Thomas & Friends HOs to DCC. I run the Bachmann EZ Command DCC controller and I purchased a Thomas & Friends 'Duck' HO locomotive.  While the instructions say I can run DC with the EZ Command DCC controller this did not work. We put Duck on the track and switched to address 10. The train makes a fair amount of electrical noise and turning the accelerator knob turns into electrical whine but no movement. Not sure why this won't work but ultimately would like to convert Duck to DCC.

I've searched forums and posts for days and there are many about converting Thomas HOs to DCC. However, most are quite outdated and I am hoping for more current advice using current decoders. Any advice would be much appreciated. Basically looking for a decoder recommendation and if there is one that includes sound and can fit in the loco, even better.  Thanks all!
