Even though I have had the Baldwin for a few months, I recently purchased a Zimo Sound Decoder for it from Digitrains. The transformation is incredible and anyone thinking of upgrading to include sound should do it if money permits!
They are a lovely model. I have two WHR with factory sound and a third 590 that I am thinking of getting the Digitrains sound decoder for.
Hi Guys
Did you see Bachmann are now releasing this locomotive with factory fitted sound Ive bee told the price is £220.70 plus postage seem a good price considering the price of the chip and locomotive separately
Thanks
Alan
It's not just Sid they are releasing with sound but all the different 'second batch' ones (WD 542, Snailbeach, GVT, etc.) apparently, along with the WHR maroon 590 without sound.
Only slightly annoying as I bought one of the sound-equipped 590s (second hand) and swapped the sound chip from it into my model of WD 542...

Hi
Sadly I only saw the Sid model but I am really looking forward to see the other items that are interesting times to model 009
Thanks
