I have the above loco with BLI sound decoder and replacement NCE N14IP motor decoder,following "Short".

I have replaced Engine PCB, Tether and BLI sound decoder.

I have motion but no sound,however when I take out the NCE N14IP I have sound.

I operate with Lenz 100 system.

Are you able to render any advice to rectify this problem I have seen on American Hobby distributors website that this is a common problem with this BLI decoder and a recommendation to purchase a "Powepax" to overcome it.

Stan has been behind our project from day one, currently he's got an injured back and is out of work but he is gratefully plying away at this build to help us promote the work we've been doing.

This image shows our DP 1089 pilot mated to a DP 6051 pilot sheet and our frame kit for the GP 34' Bolster series.

I'm running out of smart titles for these posts. I will be posting this kind of stuff for weeks to come. I have decided to complete all the subroadbed for the whole railroad to get all the dirty woodcutting done. I have used this approach before and it has so far always worked for me. 

So again: more subroadbed. I have finished the first peninsula and about 40 feet along 2 walls. The second peninsula will come next.

Hope you all enjoy the pictures!

Have you all ever wondered why you cannot shop online for a freight or passenger car by era?  I think this would make peoples shopping easier.  Also people wouldn't have to try to read build dates on a small photo.  Where do you go and how many people would it take to get a change like this to happen?
