BLI Blueline SD40-2 MILW #136 DCC Sound

After many, many tries, I got it together, sound and motor functions. As this most excellent locomotive was an eBay deal, many of the CV settings were totally askew; trying to reset them using the CV reset didn't work. Eventually after much research and praying, I learned how to do it from a model train sensei's how-to.
The decoder is Digitrax DN143IP. The Blueline manual included with the locomotive is incorrect; the decoder faces the other direction contrary to what is shown in the booklet. Power is suppled by Digitrax Super Chief, the gusto is all mine.
On to its sister MILW #133

@richsd40 I have another Blueline MILW SD40-2 #133 that I have install a decoder and again it's another eBay deal. The issue with these Blueline locos are they are relatively difficult to set in consist, having to jump through a very odd set of hoops to get it to roll in a pair.

Right now I don't have any boxcars that are MILW with me. But I do have some stack cars so off to fantasy land with respect to a good drag.
