Latest engine to have a sound decoder fitted is my Heljan Class 35 Hymek. Costal DCC supplied the sound decoder which was attached to a 1.5 Watt, 8 Ohm speaker.

This was a snug fit, under the roof but a very straight forward job. On reassembling the loco and trying the sound I found her far to quiet even on max volume, so I decided to add a second speaker, the same as the first.
The result was a fantastic transformation, now she sounds perfect!

The hiss on the video is from my awful recording device, not  or speakers, in real life the model has more bass to her sound.

Oh, Dr Beeching what have you done?
There once were lots of trains to catch, but soon there will be none.
I'll have to buy a bike, 'cos I can't afford a car.
Oh, Dr Beeching what a naughty man you are!
