MRC N 1645 Kato GE P42 and EMD E8/9 Sound Decoder

MRC's revolutionary full function, dual mode N scale sound decoder gives Kato's P42 Genesis locomotives all 28 NMRA functions.

This one piece sound decoder/speaker combination replaces Kato's factory installed printed circuit board, by simply removing the loco body, unclipping the factory unit, and dropping in the decoder.

A miracle of N scale decoder engineering, there are no connectors, no wiring, no machining, no "dremeling"; the easiest decoder installation possible.

But that is not all. This decoder is a dual mode decoder so you get brilliantly synchronized diesel rumble sounds on a DC (powerpack users) layout as well. And there's more railroaders who run DC layouts can also enjoy the full capability of the decoder when used with MRC's BlackBox (#0001050) control unit.
