Title: Streetcar BAC 80202 wnat to install sound
Post by: Scott1943 on February 12, 2013, 04:32:50 PM
I just bought the BAC 80202 and love the way it operates on the BAC reversing track system.  Now I want to put sound in to the streetcar.  Today, the Bachmann rep told me that they use Soundtraxx decoder for their equipment.  I went to the Soundtraxx site and found that their sound systems are for Locos and not for streetcars.  The description on the 80202 states that the streetcar is "designed for aftermarket sound system installation."  Any idea what type of decoder I can use on this model of streetcar?  Any help will be most appreciated!

Digitrax makes sound decoders you can load different sounds into. One of them is for a street car. You will need to buy or find some one with a PR3(the Digitrax programmer) to load the sound file.Digitrax has them on their web site under sound depot. Model Railroader I think did an article on doing this recently. Joe
