Roco BR99

[Gerhard Novak]

Found myself a bargain (or minimum I hope so...) at E-bay. A brand new Roco BR99, DCC decoder fitted for 95

I think the part number you need is Roco 10735.
Here is a photo from Reynaulds Roco US website:

However I think you may well find that Roco do not sell it as a separate item anymore!

What you need is the 90 degree pin version of this straight pin decoder Roco 10734:

Also please note that the Bachmann 35-556RA 90 degree decoders (and possibly other makes?) do not work as the pins are reversed on the Roco loco.

Many thanks for your advice Brian - the decoder prices at Roco are shocking... 66

As long as we are in the giant position the decoder is hidden.

From the side it is clearly visible. Well - from a thermal point of view this is the best position...

All in all I am quite happy with my purchase.
