Bachmann OO Class 40 PluX22 version

Bachmann OO Class 40 Diesel (PluX22 version) with MS sound

Kit: MS450PluX22; MGOLANG stay-alive

As part of Bachmann's ongoing re-tooling of their range, the Class 40 now sports a PluX22 decoder socket, a pair of SugarCube speakers and enhanced lighting. Fitting sound is simpler than ever...

Just take out the blanking plate and plug in the Zimo MS450PluX22. Note the pair of SugarCube-sized factory-fit speakers on the top of the board. These are OK, so we just leave them - would have been possible to fit a bigger dual-driver speaker if we really wanted more.

We add an MGOLANG GoldCap array for stay-alive, protected with Kapton and held in place with a little blob of BlackTack.
