ProductsEasierToFind

We've been working furiously to relist all our locomotives and many other products on the website. We have reformatted the titles to make them much easier to find the first time you search. Search by locomotive type, road name abbreviation, road number or even manufacturer's item ID and find exactly what you're looking for quickly. Each locomotive or product has it's own separate listing. Simply put the search words for the item you are looking for in the top right search box and click the red search button!

We are constantly working to list newly announced locomotives on our website. However, we must admit it is sometimes hard to keep up. If you're search doesn't find a locomotive that you know has been recently announced, call us and we can take your order over the phone. There are still some products to relist and we appreciate your patience while we continue to improve your Tony's web experience!
 


NewEconami2Amp

SoundTraxx has introduced two new decoders to the Econami family. The 2 amp ECO-PNP and ECO-200 decoders have  all the same features of the previously announced Econami sound decoders.

1. The Econami ECO-PNP is a 2 Amp, board-style digital sound decoder and replaces the existing circuit board in many locomotives. It includes a connector to add a CurrentKeeper for improved performance over dirty track and switches.

2. The Econami ECO-200 is 2-amp, universal-style digital sound decoder suitable for a wide variety of models from HO to S scale. It includes a 9-pin JST connector on one end with the wiring harness included, and a second connector on the other end allows you to easily add a CurrentKeeper to maintain performance over dirty track and switches.
