jersey,

You cannot install "Odyssey" into the CC Bershire because Lionel's Odyssey system only works with can motors (Odyssey uses a Hall Effect - magnetic - rotational sensor on the can motor flywheel). The CC Bershire (a great loco by the way - great sound - obviously I have one) uses a traditional Lionel AC Pullmor motor and does not have a flywheel with the magnet ring on it (and in the Berk there is no room to somehow add one).

However, you may wi***o contact Train America Studios. They sell a TMCC upgrade Engineer On Board (EOB) speed control product for AC motors. They could tell you if their product will work with the 726 CC Berk.

Here is a link:

Good luck and let us know how it goes!

Regards,
Roy
