Although I don't have sound in any of my diesel switchers, I would see no reason not to use the Soundtraxx LC type decoder. I hope I got the style right--it's a smaller all-in-one decoder with several horns built-in. I installed one in my Turbine just to get the horn and bell sounds. I think the total cost was about $90. The instruction manual for this decoder is the same for the decoders used in SHS's F units, so I assume similar circuits are used for both. Bob Werre BobWphoto.com
