I now have a second PS-3 upgrade done-this time a Railking USRA 2-8-8-2 Mallet which had only a very basic sound system (no PS-1/no chuff).
The second one was much easier.
I realize that I still know nothing yet, but am trying to learn.
Two down, two to go...

I consider myself to be a senior apprentice engine builder at this point. I've done 1 PS3/2 stacker install in a S2 diesel. It went well overall, nice when the plugs match.

I've also done a couple ERR's, and now a few Lionchief/ Flyerchief retrofits. Haven't tackled a steam engine yet but that will happen one day.

The graduate course is a full Legacy steam upgrade with whistle steam in a brass locomotive, I haven't done one of those yet.

If we are now talking grad school John, who among us can serve as DMPT (Doctor of Motive Power Tinkerers) to console those for whom smoke has risen in the wrong place(s). After all, smoking is bad for you.

I think virtually anyone that has done enough work on these things has seen some smoke arise from the wrong places!   I certainly don't exempt myself from that list, been there, done that, moved on with new parts.
