I picked up an old Bachmann tender at the Syracuse show for $5 (I really just wanted the trucks). When I opened it up I found it has connections to a speaker and to the light via a small board with a two wire lead out to connect to a loco.
I’m just wondering if this board actually generates some sound or is just a “junction” to connect the light and speaker. If the board itself has a sound generator on it is there a simple way to get some noise out of it or do I need the associated loco with some sort of sound generator?
thanks,
Dave
Dave, I’d bet it’s the original sound card that “chuffs”…look about half way down on this page for some Great Information in ref to that card!
