You can now find in some magazines and retailers' websites a SoundTraxx ad for the Tsunami2 TSU-BH2, 8 function outputs decoder. The sound decoder is a replacement for the Sound Value factory installed decoder in Bachmann steam models:2-6-0, 2-8-0, 4-6-2, 4-8-4 Class J and GS4. The decoder does have Tsunami2 stream feature set. You will need to replace the factory installed speaker with a 2W capable speaker to use the TSU-BH2

Just got an e mail from Soundtraxx about the diesel decoders. Only shows on their web site.    Joe

"The SoundTraxx TSU-BH1 decoder is designed to replace the factory board in the following Bachmann Sound Value Diesel Models: FA-2, FB-2, S-4, E7-A, SD70ACe, ES44AC, GP30, GP38-2, GP40, GP7, and SD40-2."

Also, you will need to replace the factory installed speaker with a 2W capable speaker to use the TSU-BH1

=============

The TSU-BH2 for steam will appear in SoundTraxx website when it is available, perhaps soon.
