- HOW TO FIT SOUND IN A HORNBY TERRIER
When I saw the terriers for the very first time I immediately wanted one on this layout, and having them sound fitted was the ‘icing on the cake’. I did think it wasn’t possibly on the advice of others, but I hope to have proved it certainly is possible to sound fit these dinky lil locos.
In this video I:
- I explain the type of decoder Im using.
- I demonstrate how to remove the body.
- I explain why Ive replaced the motor mount and briefly how this was done.
- I show the removing the dcc socket and explain why.
- I demonstrate the modification to the decoder.
- Show how I trim back the wires and fit to the loco.
- Demonstrate / explain how I refitted the body along with bits I discovered.
- Showcase the sounds on the decoder and see it running.

Beautiful little locos. Well done with that install John. I'm afraid I'd be all fingers and thumbs, and make a right mess!
I love the loco, but Id feel the same without YOUCHOOS help guide which settled it for me to give it a go. Thanks for taking the time to comment
Superb! Really nice to see one of these sound fitted. Not sure if I'm brave enough to do it to one of my own yet but you've certainly got me thinking. Great video! 👍
Thank you, very kind of you to say. I do understand that, after hearing it wasn’t possible it got me thinking. Then I saw the fitting guide on YOUCHOOS website. That’s what did it for me
I must admit your getting very good at doing these things John. Very neat job. The punters will love you.John..lol..
Ha ha ha, all good fun Allan. Got the other to do, then its waiting for the 4/6 wheeled coaches lol
@@piccadillysidingsoogaugemo6445 That will look really neat with them..Nice one John.
Thanks Allan
they look top John
Wow! That looks complicated and fiddly. Definitely way beyond my skill level. Thanks for sharing. Roy.
Hi Roy, well perhaps a little bit fiddly, but Im glad its done. One more to do, lol
Morning John, there goes my hat again! I take it off to you. Great installation good guide. Thanks John. I'm so glad I only have DC so I can look and marvel from afar. Those terriers do look really nice, stay safe, Eddy xx
Ahhhhh thanks Eddie, I do understand where you are coming from, although DCC is definitely a world of wonder
Very nice, looks to be a really nice little engine....thanks for sharing 👍👍👍
G/J John. I haven't gone to sound yet. Probably need to build the layout first. Lol But I have a few of these terriers and it is very tempting. That will be for future me to decide.
Ansolutely Gordon, I do love the sound. Still got the other to do. May look at the pecketts at some point who knows. Good luck with layout build. Ive recently extended my N gauge layout so back to basics
Very good tutorial, thanks for sharing, this gives me the inspiration to attempt this in my terrier. Many thanks
Fantastic, do take a look at the YOUCHOOS installation guide as this gives bit more info
Hi John- It must have been worth the effort as you got a great result and I do like sound locos . I have YouChoos sound decoders in 3 of mine and really like the,.
Stay Safe...............Cheers Kev
Thanks Kev, yes me too. I particularly like them for their customer service, always helpful, always supportive.
Thanks for uploading. Found this quite interesting and I would like to give it a go myself now.
Yes do, works well. Do check out Youchoos website the fitting guide is on there.
Great video on how to add sound to a Hornby Terrier this video will be useful for people trying to do the same thing great job it sounds great. Cheers and all the best.
Nicholas.
Thanks Nicholas I am certainly very pleased with it
Nice I love the terriers. P.S. sorry if this message doesn’t work, phone fell in water!-Das Mann
Thank you, yes your message got through. Most phones now are water resistant for a few feet up to around 30mins
Hey John great video mate well worth the watch. Just a quick one my brother got tts sound in a class 37 and it jutus from speed step 1 to 6 and you go speed 7 onwards is perfect any help on the cvs you can help me please?
Hi Thankyou. Thanks for your question but never had 37 nor one with TTS sound, so not sure. The decoders vary so much from loco to loco. sorry. Maybe ask Susannah, Allan at Dragon Junction or Peter Dixon may know. Possibly Jason at Barnabas Jcn
Hi John, thanks for sharing the video! Nice work! I have 3 of the latest Hornby Terriers to fit sound to and having your video will help immensely.
Can I ask if you would consider making me 3 of the 3D printed motor body clamps that you’ve made? Obviously I’m happy to pay for them. The would make life so much easier?
Thanks, look forward to hearing from you.
Hi, thank you, I used the idea from the Youchoos website. May I suggest have a look. Its not a difficult install, but you can snip a bit off the existing motor mount. I generally don’t print for sale. I have done people few favours but my time is very short atm. Let me know as and when you got the decoders and Ill see what I can do.
I have the Terrier and sound decoder I am a bit decrepit and would like some help fitting it in my loco can any one help my I am good at most things but I don,t want to ruin the hole thing
Hi this is what I used: Youchoos the sound people put install guides onto their website, terrier is just one of many. Hope it helps:
