N-gauge Steam Locomotive Sound Decoder Installation

 Norbert has a question for N gauge enthusiasts:
Are there instructions for installation of a micro-Tsunami digital sound decoder TSU-750 in a Model Power N-gauge 4-6-2 semi-streamline steam engine (No 87428)? I have checked their website with no success.
Answer below.

    well bud my sugestion would be kinda simple any high pressure pistons in a _-6-_ should work out fine if its got the 60" whell hight programed so might want to try the soundtracks decoder for the lima 4-6-2 light its the same loco under the hood as the streamlined 4-6-2 so the sounds should be the same but soundtracks also offers a tool to download new sounds from your computer to the decoder hope this helps and i would also say look around but thay do make a 12v 28-30 awg wire this wire is thin and hard to find but makes wireing up a steam loco in n-scale alot easer just make sure you have the room for the decoder in the tender and paint the wires a black (grimey or oilly works best) to make it look like the water and steam and air lines from the cab to the tender good luck
