Got one these from MB Klein this afternoon.

From the diagram has the can motor like the 4-6-0.

My guesstimate is a 15mm diameter speaker facing downward in the tender.

Full Soundtraxx Economi with all the sounds.

Runs and sounds really great, am impressed.

All the cars have Fox Valley wheels.

There is no working front coupler.

The usual answer to the front coupler is the MicroTrains Z-scale 905.

It worked but the front coupler is usually used for switching, the problem is the car being switched would "bobblehead" or "slinky".

With a little bit of fitting the McHenry coupler will work in the 905 coupler box.

Not for everyone, but works for me.

Remember when this was N-Scale steam:

Boy, has N-Scale come a long way.

That was a truly awful loco.

Yep, N Scale engines (and rolling stock) have come a long way, a very long way and are now very competitive with HO scale in all respects.
