The built-in sound system will automatically activate once power is supplied. For optimal operation, ensure the track is clean, and check the couplings for proper alignment. As a DCC-ready model, it can be further customized with additional functions if required. Do not assume controllers, power packs, or track are included unless explicitly stated.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bachmann","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44504952504476,"sku":"BM16052702","price":467.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0585\/9095\/3628\/files\/BM16052702.jpg?v=1741366866","url":"https:\/\/www.harveynorman.lol\/products\/ho-440-w-wood-tender-load-sound-dcc-central-pacific-jupiter","provider":"Hobbyco","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
