Hornby Shunter with sound

QUOTE (Madkitten @ 11 Dec 2007, 07:25) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Hiya, Has anyone managed to fit a Sound chip into a Hornby 08 or 09 yet? It looks like there is very little space inside the body to fit the neccesary equipment!!!

***Yes, its been done - a LokSound MICRO will fit fine with a little surgery and there is at least one in creation with smoke as well as sound! You will find the DCC-UK Yahoo group a good source of info on this if you ask the question there...

I have Swd class 08 sound chips in mine. Standard size decoder, remove the casing over the gears. 23 ml speaker + baffle box in cab + 20 ml behind radiator.

Loads of shunting fun.
