Great sound on that unit!!!! Do you think somebody would notice if I added it to a 0-4-0 switcher?? 

I don't take many videos but here is a short one from a National Capital Trackers show back in 2018. It is of my Lionel HH1 (Y3).

No, I don't think so. My Big Boy is so loud I can hardly hear myself talk.

Sorry, not working very hard on the test track.  However, it was a new acquisition shakedown.
