hello this topic is for those of us who have these companies on our Layouts. I have an NS gp 40, and a sd40-2 NS (At Bachmann Service), I have a bachmann emdgp7 ge demonstrator, and a CSX dash -8 b and Dashwc.
How hard is it to install a sound decoder? I have a CSX 7661, DCC only bachmann dash-8 that needs sound
Lots reference material on the Internet of things to offer guidance, bet there might be some on trains.com
Space is always the main issue. If you have the space, installing a sound decoder is no big deal.

I assume most f you will be dealing in HO, but I recently installed Digitrax sound decoders in two N scale Kato CSX GEVO locos. Space is certainly at a premium, I had to replace the supplied capacitors with SMD versions, but all-in-all, it was fairly easy, even in N scale and with my difficulty in working with small parts/fine details.
