Looking at installing more sound in my steamer(s). But which decoder(s) to choose. The steamers in question are the Bachmann 2-8-0 (one) and 4-6-0 (two). The 2-8-0 and one 4-6-0 have Digitrax decoders, but they are older models not compatible with the "SoundBug" add-on SFX-only module.
So my choices appear to be three:
1) New Digitrax decoder + suitable SoundBug
2a) New Digitrax all-in-one sound/motor decoder like SDN144PS (which I like 'cuz it's small, has a plug, and includes a speaker, or
2b) Tsunami. At 3x the price of the Digitrax offering, I wonder if I am getting three times the value. Oh yeah - and speaker and plug are not included.
Your advice is appreciated!
