DCC Sound

ESU & South West Digital LokSound 4 Micro 0.5amp Locomotive Sound Decoder & Speaker
Designed to fit the more restricted space inside N gauge model locomotives the Loksound 4 micro decoder is also useful for fitting to small OO scale locomotives where the larger standard size sound decoder would be difficult to accomodate.
The decoder can be supplied with 6-pin or 8-pin connection, the 6-pin sockets being the standard fitting for N gauge and is now being used in smaller OO models.

The micro decoder is recommended for use with the Bachmann 57xx and 8750 class pannier tank and other models which have an 8-pin decoder socket, but very restricted space.
