Ian_B Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Has anyone got a sound chip with a Class 70 Project for fitting to the Bachmann Class 70's? I see Olivia's are advertising one - is it any good? Does anyone else sell one? Has anyone who's received a Bachmann 70 tried fitting it with sound? Any comments on the ease (or lack) of the fitting Process? Ian_B Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Black Hat Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Just from past experience, Id wait until either Bachmann, SWD or Howes annouced a class 70. Given the model, and the fact that its a new up to date modern image machine, there will surely be a class 70 sound chip coming soon from someone more accurate.

St. Simon Posted December 19, 2010 Share Posted December 19, 2010 Hi, I believe that the Olivia Trains chip hasn't been released and is 'coming soon' See post No. 157 and 158 on the page 7 of this thread. Simon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume by now you got the decoder, how did you go on fitting it in the Class 70, which decoder did you use and what problems did you have, if any!

Guest 838rapid Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 I have fitted a sound chip (lok 3.5) into a class 70 no problems for a mate at a club i used to go too. I used a 20x40 speaker as fitted to Bachmann engines,it fitted under the rad end. The sound chip sounded superb. Well worth a go Charlie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
