Ok not really sure where I can put this as its something to me that falls under multiple areas, scenery, layout and DCC/buildings....so here goes...
I want to build a train station (obviously) or find one prebuilt, yes I know Tyco or some company used to make one with sound part of it, but I don't want that as I want to use my own custom announcements. so my question is whats the best way to have a station that can play announcements BUT remain as self contained as possible, I don't have a true layout bench right now so any thing I make more or less has to be self contained as much as possible.
at this time I have a simple system that uses a CD player, with a cord running from the 3.5mm jack to two or so speakers to play the announcements so far, but I want to try and make something more "compact" or self contained if possible...
so with that in mind anyone have any ideas?
