<p>[quote user="wcu boy"]I looked at TCS's web site for a sound decoder; however, I was confused a little. The engine is a GP38, but the installation files did not allude to it being a plug and play installation. One GP38 installation was a hardwire, non-DCC ready while the other installation was a board replacement.[/quote]</p> <p>Look farther down on the list, the installation may be similar to the silver series GP40s.</p> <p>Is your locomotive listed here: <a href="http://www.atlasrr.com/holoco/hogp38406.htm">http://www.atlasrr.com/holoco/hogp38406.htm</a>?</p> <p>You should probably remove the shell to check for space for a speaker. (not sure where they go on the gold series).</p> <p>The WOW 101 Diesel decoder with a T-series harness would be 1 option. Another TCS option would be the product listed on the TCS home page. Its made to replace the entire board (AK-MB1 w/WOW 121).</p>
