Thanks, Kevin.

I recently purcahsed a used large scale 81180 Pardee & Curtin Lumber Climax locomotive.
I want to add a Phoenix p 11 sound systen with a 2 1/2" oval speaker. ( seems to have room for it )
I noticed that the newer models come with a fan unit for cooling, when loaded with a sound unit. Will this be an issue for me?

 

For the benefit of those installing a sound unit in a Bachmann  1/20.3 Scale NG Rail Truck.
I have found what I believe the least expensive way to achieve the above. ( Engine & horn sound )

Many thanks to the folks in the Santa Cruz Garden Railroad group. I will be using a sound module made by
I T T.  website : http://www.ittproducts.com/hqpage_2008.htm $34.95 + shipping and tax.

I'll let you know how it works.

quote author=glennk28 link=topic=9953.msg82692#msg82692 date=1248654954] The Precision CraftOn3/On30 "Galloping Geese" have a great sound system in them and can often be had quite cheap.  I would guess that if you removed things carefully and kept notes on what you did, you should be able to move the unit over.

THe Precision Craft goose seems to be the least expensive way to acquire sound for my Bachmann 1/20 rail truck.

But dose it run on DC power??

Sincerely,

Thanks for all your help.
I'll look into the things you have suggested.

Is is possible to add a sound unit to a 1/20 large scale Narrow Gauge Rail Truck that is  running on  standard DC track power. ( Not DCC ).
If so, what would be the product to use?

Sincerely,

F. John
