    Atlas DC Sound

    Just getting back to my layout after 2 years off. I have a 6by20 ft DC one train operation layout with a MRC tech 4 pak. I want to buy a DC sound equipped loco "Atlas" and I guess I would need a Quantum controller. I have seen MRC ads for a new sound system for DC. Anybody else have 'gold...
