Default Online shops where I can buy decoder,speaker,engine and they install?

After several failed Dcc ready installs... I plan to buy preinstalled Dcc/sound. For those diesel engines that are only available Dcc ready...

Is there an online store where I buy the engine+decoder/speaker and they will install? I am thinking that a package deal would be more economical than sending in an engine for an install.

thanks

Jon

It sounds to me as if you want to buy a DCC/sound equipped loco.
Atlas, Athearn, Bachmann, Broadway Limited, MTH, they all sell them.
Or do you want to custom design the package?

My LHS does DCC sound installs and has online ordering. However you probable need to call so they can put together what you need.

Seems like the buy all components from one place and they put together idea is not easily available.

So I found some existing with on board sound, and will have to be patient on eBay to get other road names and engines not immediately available with sound.

Thanks,

Jon

there must be a LHS that can help you, especially if its a DCC-ready loco, or even a local train club. The ones near me are very wiling to help fellow train people. G
