[quote user="middleman"] I've got all the switchers I need,but I'm still tempted to pick up one or two of the UP S2's with DCC/sound(Loksound) installed. Ditto what Randy said about the Lokpilot/Loksound decoders. TCS is also known for their excellent motor control,and I'm very happy with the TCS WOWsound decoders I've installed(but they're all steam,maybe someone else will comment on the diesel WOWs). I have some Tsunami's that are good overall,but the horn sounds are very weak. From what I've read on other threads,the micro-tsunami's can get very hot. I've been disappointed with the motor control of the QSI Titans I have.Also the sound(at least on the steam versions)has an occasional,annoying "phase shifting" quality. Mike [/quote] TCS just came out with a new Alco 251 engine sound.   They do not have a Alco 539T which is the prototypical engine for the S2.   The 251 goes in the RS-11, S-5 and later alco products.  I believe Soundtraxx has a decoder that produces a 539T sound.
