Title: Need a part number and price
Post by: scarpi on December 30, 2015, 06:07:38 PM
One of my engines is a Bachmann On30 4-4-0 DCC sound ready. I have decided to add the proper sound card to it. I can't find the part number or the price. Does anyone know where I might find that information? I have looked on the parts page and can't seem to find that info. Thanks. I will run this along with my new 4-6-0 sound equiped engine that runs great and the sounds add alot of interest to model railroading.

If I remember right, Bachmann uses SoundTraxx Tsunami decoders in their sound-equipped engines.

SoundTraxx's Decoder Selector page indicates that their TSU-1000 Light Steam decoder (Part number 826101) matches Bachmann's On30 4-4-0s: http://www.soundtraxx.com/choose/step3.php?t=o&s=Bachmann

I'm seeing them online for under $100, unfortunately they don't have the NMRA 8-pin connector, you'll have to add one yourself.
