Has anyone fitted LGB with DCC and or soundtraxx. I have several engines, but can not seem to find out anything about it. All my N scale are DCC and I thought possibly I could get a decoder for these engines. Any help is good. Thanks Carl
Yes there are G scale decoders. They handle more current since those bigger motors tend to draw more. I'm not sure if soundtraxx has a stand-alone decoder that can handle G, but you could certainly get a sound-only decoder to run in tandem with a regular decoder. Go to http://www.tonystrains.com and browse through the products. I believe both NCE and Digitrax (at least) make G decoders.
Have a look in George Schreyer's site. Drill down the Technical Tips section and there is a section on Large Scale DCC.
Corey and Mike Many thanks for the info. I went to the site and all my questions (Ihope) are answered. Thanks again Carl
Art: "They have several different G-scale decoders available. Their instruction manuals also cover sound hook-up." Very interested in the Zimo product as long as it interfaces with Digitrax with no problem. Thanks for the tip please contact ecpohl@msn.com Carl
