I'm new too. Been researching sound decoders for a few weeks now and for my C-19 steamer I'm going with LokSound XL v4.0. its on the expensive side but I think the sound is very realistic and has a chuff trigger for pulsing smoke along with some other external triggers for different sounds. On my train the decoder is installed in the tender. I've read good reviews on the soundtraxx tsunami 2 sound decoder also but most reviewers like ESU LokSound best.
