Hi Les,

Massoth have sounds for the Crok so you would have to install a XLS decoder or add a S sound module (if you can get one).

8230040 is the classic RhB Krok for the LGB or Marklin/LGB model

8230230 is the Bernina Krok, no side rods, that was made by KISS.

As for installation it was simple on the LGB build and I'm not aware Marklin have changed it. You'd need some LGB spade connectors to connect the eight track and motor pins to the decoder and from memory a LGB interface cable to connect the lights. I'll check the dcc thread
Here we go though you need to ask Mike to see what happened to his pictures ;)

That code doesn't exist on the Massoth XLS list, 8230042 is the modern Ge4/4 III which sounds nothing like the Krok.
With the XLS decoders you have to select the decoder as an item then they usually have a box to type in the code which tells them which sound to upload. I'd suggest ringing to make sure they know which loco it is if the sites are confusing.
