Old Time Classic Photo's Of The Locomotives On The Roster Of The "New" JJJ&E    ( Continued )


An classic old time photo of a SP "Daylight" GS-4 #4449 on the mainline track with the Switching Yard in the background. This is the Kato version of the "Daylight" SP GS-4 #4449. I used the two decoder approach on this locomotive. A Lenz mini silver decoder controls the motor functions and a A Soundtraxx Micro Tsunami Heavy Steam decoder controls the sound functions. A mini oval speaker is wired to the Soundtraxx Micro Tsunami Heavy Steam decoder. Both decoders and speaker are located in the tender which is large enough to hold all three components.
