Hello All,

I purchased a Awesome Daylight Locomotive (DCC) and want to add sound at a reasonable price.

I found this one, 1630 SHEER BRILLIANCE STEAM DCC HO and would like to know if anyone can tell me if it will work with my engine. I was told that it was 5 yrs old (Im ok with that) (Im not looking for superior quality)

Specs:
MRC DCC STEAM SOUND DECODER. BRAND NEW IN FACTORY BOX. Features: Different chuff sounds (4 articulated & 4 non-articulated), 12 different whistles and 4 separate bells, 18 accessory sounds and optional firebox lighting, 2 or 4 digit addressing, 14/28/128 speed steps with back emf, ability to change whistle type without difficult CV programming.
