Tsunami 2 in Atlas 8-40B - faraway - 01-05-2018

The Atlas HO 8-40B is equipped with a small PCB preventing a 1:1 swap with a Tsunami 2 PnP decoder. The front weight can be cut easily and the Tsunami 2 fits with double sided sticky tape and Kapton tape pretty well. The sugar cube fits in the designated speaker position and front ditch lights need just one hole per light. A quick and dirty / easy conversion. It looks awful but it works perfect.

The model is a CR engine with patches for CSX 5961. It will be in revenue service soon!

ps. Yes, the Tsunami 2 replaced an ESU Loksound. There is another 8-40B awaiting that very same procedure.
