dave ottney Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 I am dabbling in European HO, having purchased a couple sound equipped locomotives. I just bought the loco in the title and have put a Digitrax decoder. I'd like to put a sound decoder in it. Could someone advise which ESU sound decoder to use and possibly a British or European vendor. US vendors carry ESU but I haven't found one who offers them with European sounds. By the way I found the locomotives at this online store - djunction.com They have a lot of new " old" stock in HO OO & N at pretty good prices. There's a lot of European and British stuff. I'm not sure what the shipping would be to the UK. Dave Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TWG Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 The ESU decoder that you need depends on the interface in your loco. If it is NEM852 8-pin then the catalogue number is 54483. Any competent ESU dealer will have a Lok-Programmer, with which he can download the BR185 sound from the ESU website and install it in your decoder, so there should be no difficulty buying it in the USA. If you do want to buy from Europe, I suggest that you consider Modellbahn Lippe. I have always found them very efficient and they offer the 185 decoder for €107.92, which is a reasonable price. You will need to check postage costs. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had been looking at buying some of the OO stuff but unfortunately never got a chance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
