For at least the last 2 years folks have been asking me to do a video on installing DCC and sound in LifeLike E-units so here you go. This is a long video mainly due to all the wires that need to be run for the lights and power pickup. But that is to be expected with these "legacy" locomotive models produced before manufacturers were installing sockets for DCC let along decoders. I decided to use a Decoder Buddy Mini circuit board so I could experiment with different decoder brands but it also tends to actually make the installation easier. So sit back with a cup of something and enjoy the project, and you may want to even watch it in two sittings. To check out my other videos on installing LEDs, using Decoder Buddies, repairing axle gears, and the TCS dual prime mover decoder follow the links provided in this video.
