Here are some video clips that will give you an idea of how the trains look and sound with DCC, Digitrax, SoundTraxx and factory integrated QSI decoders.
Many of these video's will now take you to the YouTube site which should make them faster and easier to watch. These clips do not do justice to the actual sight and sound, but they will give you a good idea of what you can look forward to. I do not have fancy recording equipment (that should be obvious), so there is no dubbing or skullduggery here. The microphone on the camera picks up the sound directly and it maybe a bit more focused (loader) than when the engine is just running around the layout. Other than that, what you see and hear, is what ya get! Please be patient as they load.
