"This product is to be attached behind the steam locomotive. It will get power automatically from the rails and you can enjoy realistic sounds from low speeds to high speeds. Concerning the power packs to use with this product, please use SCR equal pulse controllers. If other voltage controllers are used, the sound will be cut off in lower speed operation." the rest just talks about what to do when the product is defective. Hope this helps :) not sure sure if you still the translation, since its been a while, but it basically says what you’ve already found out.

Now to convert a Steamer. I've recently acquired a Kato C57, will try to convert this tonight. I wonder how easy it will be to isolate the driving wheels from the engine and only supply power from the tender. Right, works fine on DCC, see the videos…

I don't know what the chances of extracting the data are... but I am keen to look into it. First thing is to get it running, even if behind a diesel, on DCC.

I wonder how hard it would be to redesign the PCB using SMD components to get it to fit in your tender? What an awesome find!
