Athearn SD40-2 sound 1

Athearn SD40-2 sound 1

This is probably my last self conversion to sound. I bought the decoder a couple of years ago, but now (Jan 2007) the availability of decent, factory fitted sound at a reasonable price makes doing it yourself only worthwhile if you absolutely have to have a particular loco that isn't available (yet).
This pic shows the open brass grilles (Precision Scale #3931) fitted into the dynamic brake housing inplace of the solid molded items. The speaker is a 0.8" x 1.6" unit from Tony's Train Exchange.
