96RAF Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Have you trawled the various sound suppliers such as You-Choos, Legomanbiffo, Roads&Rails, etc to see if they have a suitable sound decoder as Hornby does not do a specific retro kit TTS unit for a large Prairie.You can of course depending upon how purist you can look for a TTS retro kit with two cylinders and GWR whistles as a rough match.e.g. Have a read of this previous thread https://uk.hornby.com/community/forum/large-prairie-sound-decoder?p=1All sound decoders are the same from an installation viewpoint apart from the number of pins. Each needs room for the decoder and a place for a matching speaker. Some installations require intermediate or advanced modelling skills including soldering.This guide of mine may be of some assistance with the basics.http://www.halton96th.org.uk/ttsdownload.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
