:by far the best running dc engine i had saved, and it had been modified and detailed previously. With the addition of the Soundtraxx sound decoder, and a thorough cleaning, the engine runs better than before, plus great sound at an affordable cost. This was my first attempt doing a conversion. No modifications other than ensuring the board and any connections were isolated.
- thanks to the folks at digitalroundhouse, it was a complete success!
-
modeler's note: the sideskirts were not modified until the mid-sixties.
