The Bach Man, Joe and Kevin. Thanks Guys,

You're beautiful! Every question was answered,...... well except the last one  I can check with Bachmann about that ...does the Forney comes with a speaker or not?  BUT, man! Thanks Kevin about the info on the "isolating issues", that can really save me a lot of work and time not having to isolate motor,track,wheels etc. with this loco. And the video from Joe, on the Revolution receiver being install in the new Bachmann Forney answers the question of "plug n' play" that I had,.. that was great! . Finally, I thank the Bach Man for the AristoCraft link ,..... but have'nt gotten a reply yet  But I quess I really don't need it now, huh? .

Thanks again Guys,
Bob E Weekly

Dear Bach Man,

I've been away for a while, it's good to be back. I want to buy 2 BACHMANN SPECTRUM®1:20.3 SCALE BALDWIN 2-4-4- FORNEY STEAM LOCOMOTIVE (80997)

I heard that this new BACHMANN FORNEY engine is Plug n Play, does that mean that the  Aristo Craft CRE57002SS REVOLUTION 2.4 GHZ Receiver W/Generic Steam Sound will work in the new Forney engine?

I seen a Youtube video and it showed the Revolution receiver was simply plugged into the "plug and play socket" of the Forney. I plan to put these receivers in the Forney, will they work?

Also, I plan to use battery power thru a DPDT toggle switch on the outside back of the tender. But...............

QUESTIONS:

1) Do I have to isolate all the wires from the frame,wheels and engine? 
2)How do I connect the battery to the"plug and play" socket board of the Forney?
3) And does the Forney come with a built in speaker?   


Thanks Bach Man,
