Loco-sound is not PS-1, and it is not strictly conventional either. it will work by remote using the enclosed remote and IR lock-on in the set. Or conventionally with a transformer. Loco-sound was released  concurrently with PS-2. It was like a 'poor mans' DCS.  It has since been discontinued. It will not operate with DCS. No battery is needed to run the engine. (but the remote uses batteries). The plug is for the rear electric coupler, if equipped. One could be added if desired. The other wires are connected to nothing at the other end. You can clip them off if you want, but with a plastic tender shell, there is not a chance for a short circuit. They are there because the same harness is used in different locos and utilized in them. It could be upgraded, but that is going to cost double what the engine is worth, no matter what system you choose. You can get that same engine on ebay with PS-2 for less money than a up-grade kit.
