Yeah, although it does not look much like a Hudson any more. I made a T&NO Pacific out of it. Anyway, I used a Digitrax N scale wired decoder. Don't recall the model number right off but I made a place for it in the boiler shell somewhere.
Ok put it in the tender, where did you guys attach the black and red leads too? the front chassis or the just the tender pickups? the motor looks to be isolated when the motor pickups are pulled up from between the chassis and motor , am i thinking right? thanks
