Good information, Bill.  Do you happen to know the model number of this non-sound decoder from ESU?

Glad you pointed that out on the Econami EP-21.

Scott,

ESU has a non-sound 21 pin decoder. All of the factory equipped DCC no sound locomotives from manufacturers like Bowser, Fox Valley Models and Intermountain are using it.

Do not be tempted to buy the Soundtraxx Econami EP-21. Though it is a 21 pin decoder, it is not totally compatible with the boards in locomotives that have 21 pin connectors. A friend of mine and myself learned this the hard way.

Only thing is, I'm not interested in sound decoders, just "regular" decoders, hence my mention of Digitrax & NCE ( I should have also included TCS).  One can always "hardwire" the decoder, but I was hoping the Rivarossi models would be compatible with any make decoder, sound or otherwise.  Are you saying the later versions of the U25C (and the U28C) models don't have the 8 pin socket?  I suspect these Rivarossi models are too new for the decoder manufacturers to suggest a decoder on their websites yet, which is why I was asking what others who installed their own decoders have used.
