Picked up one of the new Athearn ready to run Cotton Belt SD Tunnel motors today while visiting my parents in Indiana, took it to the local club I used to belong to and wow does it run nice, quiet, lots of detials. Ran it with a pair of proto 2000 sd60"s trailing it, ran with them beautifully! Just need to get the richmond controls light circuit to make the lights constant and have the gyralite work. Is anybody offering a duel mode sound decoder yet? I dont plan to add DCC to my layout anytime soon, but would love to have sound in this unit. I have heard rumors about them, but nothing else. Cheers Mike
