Paul, speaker? Did you say SPEAKER? As in SOUND??? Excellent!
Can't believe nobody picked up on it... So do you mean room for a speaker or do you actually plan to bring it out with sound?
Otto, excited in Cucamonga

I caught it earlier, and wondered if Paul was having some fun with us. This is most excellent.

I'll take mine in C&NW and UP colors, please.

or are you talking about where the plastic piece fits into the base of the hood?

Yeah, that's it. I'm sure you'll get it perfect, it's just something that stood out.

I think the Cedar Falls branch line just upgraded to an S2 , these are going to be sweet.

Who said anything about sound?  I just said the box was for the speaker.

The original Alco S2's of the CPR will be represented by this fine product on the Puddington Valley Division..........

That will be sweet. Even better if Paul isn't pulling our leg about sound. :D

Right, and each unit comes with a miniature MP3 recording of what, "Helen Ready, the Vegas Years" standard...? Are you engaging in chain pulling Paul ?  :D

True...

Someone get on the horn to TCS and yell at them to make an S-2 sound decoder, and don't tell MRC.  ;)

While everyone is at it... i could use a burger, fries and a thick chocolate shake as well...  :D

Wow!  The prototype model looks great!
Now I only have to figure out what to do with the three or so undecorated Arnold models I bought many years ago with the intentions of painting them for B&M. :|

I also like to thank arbomambo for posting the photos here: I'm a Facebook-phob!  Don't you all know that F-book is evil?!   :facepalm:

Paul,

Do you know if the trucks will fit under the Atlas RS3 mechanism? It would be cool to have some Milwaukee RS-3's with blunt trucks!

Get out of my head!
