Bachmann J72 Tank with MS sound and stay-alive

Bachmann OO J71 Tank with DCC Sound and Stay-Alive

Kit: MS581G

The factory-fit 15x11mm speaker is reasonable, and too difficult to upgrade without major surgery, so we leave that alone.

Example 1

MS581 plugs in with its' GoldCaps neatly attached above.
