Yes, there are decoders that have the plug integrated right into their circuit board, you can get a decoder with a wiring harness with the NMRA plug on one end, or you can get a decoder that has a JST socket on it and a matching wiring harness with the JST and NMRA plugs.
Check the following Web sites for information on what decoder will fit your locomotive:
The Digitrax DH163IP drops right in, no fuss, no muss.
thanks!
