Full Range of MRC Sound Decoders In Stock!

Model Rectifier Corporation (MRC), a staple in the hobby industry for more than 50 years, has been aggressively releasing a series of onboard sound decoders for both N and HO scale:

1. EMD modern large locomotives (HO, pn. 0001632) in a convenient 8 pin plug and play style,
2. EMD modern switchers (HO, pn. 0001633),
3. EMD modern large locomotives (HO, pn. 0001634) in a board replacement style decoder for many Atlas, Athearn, and several Kato locos,
4. Generic diesel board replacement style decoder for larger N scale locos (pn. 0001636),
5. Generic steam decoder (N, pn. 0001637) for use in larger N scale steam tenders,
6. A mini EMD diesel decoder for use in many HO applications and possible usage in N scale dummy units (pn. 0001638),
7. A mini generic steam which would fit in almost any HO loco you could find or possibly certain N scale tenders (pn 0001639).

They also still offer the original Sheer Brilliance line (pn. 0001630 and 0001631 steam and diesel respectively).

With the development and release of all these new units MRC seems to have seriously put themselves on the DCC sound map!

All the decoders feature a number of user selectable options from different steam chuffs and prime mover sounds to different chimes on the diesel horns and selectable bells.

Also they support 2 or 4 digit addressing and 14, 28, or 128 speed steps.
