Thanks, guys. Didn't realize that MTH had made a Premier GP20. Anyway, the one I looked at on their site was a Railking Scale version with 3v Proto 2 in Burlington livery. The horn is the big deal to me and I guess I am maybe fixated a bit too much. The other thing is that on a GP20, the dimensions are the same as a GP7 or 9 and the low nose bangs into a can motor and so can't slide the body back into position on the chassis. I modified a Williams motor mount to allow the can motor to tilt backwards at about 10-12 degrees and it just clears now. Believe, me it was a ton of fiddling to make this work without having the gears binding up. If I never find a proper sound file I guess it's the way the cookie crumbles. I have a Lionel GP30 which I really like because it does have a great sound set dedicated specifically for Burlington 945, which the dispatcher calls out clearly. It doesn't get much better than that. Anyone know if it's possible to have a set custom made and installed on a sound board?
