A you tube installation suggests a TCS dp 2x decoder. Not interested in putting in sound at this point and this looks like a good fit in regard to space requirements and ease of install. Any other reccomendations for this application? Thank you
ndbprr,
That's the one I used and it works great. TCS has become my go-to non-sound decoder becasue of it's excellent motor control.

For sound or non-sound, you just can't beat ESUs motor control. I'd take a serious look at their LokPilot line of decoders ....

I'm just a dude with a bad back having a lot of fun with model trains, and finally building a layout!
For me - TCS and ESU are essentially equal on motor-control. And another one that nobody ever mentions is Lenz. Their Silver and Gold decoders rival TCS and ESU. I have a Blueline Niagara outfitted with a Lenz Silver MP decoder that will do 0.3sMPH.
