Quick little update from last night.
This was bugging me.
I found that if I remove a little bit of the styrene spacer I installed I could pass the harness through there.
There's enough room to pass the the headlight harness through also.
BTW. I did have a chance to run the straight DC Bowser through the speedometer. Both locomotives seemed identical with the eyeball test around 50 scale miles. But the DC Bowser pushed 80 mph when transformer was turned all the way up. Where the DCC loco topped out at 48 mph. Watching some BLI H-10 videos on youtube I think the DCC top end speed is about right.
