I need to know when Bachmann states that a Spectrum steam loco is DCC ready, is that it has a plug in connection or soldier pads for installing a decoder with sound. Also is the tender set up for a speaker or do you have drill holes for sound? Engine is a Bachmann PRR K4 Pacific steam loco Walthers Part #160-84013.
Dear Top,
Generally, in HO, that's the case. However, in the case of small engines, like the 0-6-0 tank loco, it means that the motor is isolated and there are solder pads for a decoder without plugs.
Have fun!
