HO / Re: SOUND DECODER FOR THE NKP BERKS WITH DCC ?
March 29, 2008, 08:01:42 PM
 I used a Soundtraxx DSD-101LC Heavy Steam Sound Decoder. All you have to do is plug in the decoder in to the 8 pin socket & solder 2 wires to a speaker. A 1.25" speaker is too big. Anything less than that should work.

Dear Chief,
It's concentric ovals on the bottom and middle levels and a 15" radius oval on top.
Very simple, really.
Have fun!

You have no track plan?!?

 Dear Bach-Man, could you put DCC in every Thomas Series engine so people won't have to worry about fiiting a tiny decoder inside?

Hi Bach-mann, with the sucess of your 2-8-4(way to go!), could you make a model of the Nickel Plate 587. It is a 2-8-2 class H-60 built by baldwin for the Wheeling & Lake Erie. The Nickel Plate bought the W&LE, it obtained the 587. The loco is now located at the Indiana RR Muesum undergoing a rebuild. If you make it, make it in HO scale with sound please!

NKP 587 was NOT a Wheeling & Lake Erie engine. It is a USRA light 2-8-2 built in 1919 for the LAKE ERIE and WESTERN, as their engine number 5541. When the NKP bought and absorbed the LE&W in 1922, they classified the LE&W's 15 USRA lights as class H-6o (oh, not zero).

Currently, there are already four USRA light models on the market (Bowser, BLI, Trix, IHC. Athearn made one a few years ago as well) so I don't think that Bachmann adding a fifth (or sixth) version of the same engine type would be a useful marketing plan on their part. Bachmann DOES need an American prototype 2-8-2 in their catalog however, and there are plenty of other deserving, and decidedly NOT USRA-styled engines out there that need to be made (Harriman-standard or NYC H-5, for example)
Hey don't I know you from Model RR fourms! I'm New Haven I-5.

Hello, hasn't anyone noticed what I rescently got in the mail or what? ???  Also Corrie, this thread is for posting comments about my Thomas & Friends model collection, NOT for yours (i'm not trying to be mean or anything)!
I noticed it. Do you live in the U.S Boomer Fan. If so, how much does Duck cost in American $$$?
