DCC-Sound 4-6-0 from Bachmann

I see that Bachmann has stealthily released a DCC-Sound version of their 4-6-0. I say stealthily because it is only available as part of their "Whistle-Stop Special" train set.

Looks like the street price for the set is right around $300, which isn't too bad given what DCC-Sound steamers typically sell for. I'm almost tempted to pick up a set just to see how the loco runs, but if someone else would like to beat me to that, please do  :D

They put that stupid big a$$ tender on it, so they might as well!

Probably isn't much change on the engine itself.  They're just plugging in a DCC Sound tender.
