This engine is set up for the PS3 boiler board and tender board. It also had the wireless tether already there.
I bought the steam upgrade kit (w/PS32) and installed it thinking I'd shove it in there and make it work. After moving the motor back towards the rear, it was getting tight in there and I would have had to cut the cab rear for the included tether connector.
I decided to take the board set out of a Weaver engine that shorts itself out. It has the MTH boiler board and is set up already for the MTH wireless tether. I needed another PS3 tender board for the set up I had intended to use.
Here's a quick video of this engine now. The old PRR sound set is still in the board. I will update it tomorrow. The drive is not finished and there's a temporary flywheel inside. For some reason the chuffs are very short sounding like abrupt or ending quickly? Hard to describe. I'm hoping the new sound set may fix this.
I have many engines waiting for attention and more have acted up. I just had another diesel throwing sparks. The last time, it was pieces of ballast causing a dead short. My Williams challenger just went south again too. Took off like a rocket on our grandson.
One step forward, three steps back!
