As with the W-1, a TCS 1485 KAM4 with keep alive decoder was used.
The motor is a huge open frame motor. I left it in and will see if the decoder can handle the amps. Fortunately, both ground and hot had insulated tabs so no insulation of the motor from the frame was necessary.
Surprising, this engine is very quiet, even with an open frame motor.
The W-1 electric with two can motors is very noisy.
That's a beauty
