I found a very affordable older Bachman 2-6-0 ($30) for my son which I was hoping to install Railpro into, but when it comes to steam I'm pretty clueless. It appears the locomotive only picks up power in the 3 drivers which makes me think it may not run very reliably. The frame is in halves and isolated with some plastic spacers, I cannot figure out how or where I would add the wiring for the motor and the driver contacts. The Railpro module and speaker would definitely get located inside the tender, but is it worth spending the time installing Railpro in this older locomotive or should I just find a DCC ready one, like the Spectrum 2-8-0?
Thanks,
Dan Risdon
