That is me to a “T” close but no cigar…
Bringing this back up as the kitbashed 1200 series had her maiden voyage this past weekend. No pics but it wasn’t pretty. Slammed it a bit to tight on the diaphragms and the kadee 906 boxes hit the trucks not allowing for up and down movement but the side to side was fine.
All in all decent test and tune though but wasn’t happy initially.
I hope you made a box and celebrated the construction of this magnificent car by holding an authentic box disposal ceremony 
Didn’t have to as it came with a box.
