I run a mix of conventional and command control on my layout.  Occasionally when the little ones come over to see my trains they like to blow the whistles.  For most of my conventional engines the only way to do that is to push the lever on the side of the ZW.  Is there a way I could wire up a remote button so the kids could get to the whistle a little more easily?

 To expand on this, Lionel suggests using 2, 5906's to activate both bell and whistle/horn.  Hookup instructions were usually found within an engines manual.

 

Lionel used to produce the 5904 to access both sounds.
