Example 1: Dapol OO Class 52 Western - 6 Function version

Kit: MX644C; Zimo Dumbo LS55X22X09-2W

Shown with the kit already installed, this is a very simple conversion to DCC Sound. Basically the same as the previous 4-function version, except that this one requires the 'C' type of MX644 21pin decoder in order to access all of the 6 lighting features. We have a special version of our Western project which is pre-configured for the extra lighting features in this model.

Example 2: Smaller Speaker

Kit: MX644C; Zimo Dumbo LS40X22X09

Another example using exactly the same approach, but a slightly smaller speaker. This choice would allow for speaker for a SuperCap (with LifeLink) if you wanted to big stay-alive instead (not shown here).

Alternative Speakers

Kit: MS440C; Rail Exclusive BoomBox 40x20x10 2W; SuperCap17000uF

Another alternative set of kit that we think works really well...

Kit: MS440C; YLR603010; SuperCap17000uF

Yet another kit - the YLR603010 just about goes into the latest edition of the Western with the speaker platform removed. This speaker gives probably the best performance of them all.
