Hey,
I recently purchased the N scale N&W 611 and was ready to get it moving under DCC. Bachmann advertised that he was ready for a 6 pin or 8 pin decoder. When I opened the engine up, there was no connection points, Help?

When you open up the tender (you'll have to take out the middle wheel in each tender truck), you'll see the DCC connection points numbered 1,2,4,5,6,7, and 8. Follow the instructions in the link above.

Would have been great to see this one re-released with dcc and sound option.

I put a Soundtraxx ECO-100 in mine. Works well but I'm trying to come up with a better speaker. Blew out the first one.

Try an 8mmX12mm sugar cube speaker with enclosure. You won't be disappointed.
