    Been pondering doing this for a while, and finally collected the right motor and got a start on this. My only concern is if the speaker is going to affect the loksound chip? Hasn't on any of my other stuff, but they aren't as cozily installed as this!

    The motor is out of a ten-wheeler from Bachman, they are sweet runners. The speaker is a tcs 1/2 inch job.

    Figured out that the loksound I have is a #15, Shay sound loaded. Ooops. Got stalled until I get a proper sound file, don't think it would sound right with that file! But still have much to do with lights and such.

    And yes, this one gets to stay in the 'bandit' scheme from DRGW with the NPBH lettering, just because I like it that way!
