Wexford70 Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Hi guys, I know there has been discussion about engines being changed on the 121s Can some more knowledgeable member tell me which sound DCC chip is suitable for each of the 121s becoming available? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks The murphy models chip. As to EMD 645 or EMD 567 variants, It depends on what livery loco you buy. Most ears cannot tell the difference anyway. 645 would be more recent liveries such as IE/IR Tippex, 567 would be grey and black and tan liveries, supertrain could be either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WRENNEIRE Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 Wait till they are released, there will be plenty of info on which one will suit your loco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiveController Posted June 25, 2020 Share Posted June 25, 2020 (edited) The link that Fran refers to above gives you a good idea of what was in what and when it changed. I expect that when they get round to it, they may have a guide on each model as to when to use each chip e.g. received 547 engine circa 197x etc. Edited June 26, 2020 by DiveController Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
