DZ126T and Lok-Sound Micro 5 Decoder in KIYA97

There is no room in the cab of the KIYA97 so I went looking for alternative locations. The only other area was the underbody of the KIYA97. I had to Dremel away a small portion of a detail but that was it now comes the routing of the wires stay tuned. I also added magnets to the cab and the body of the KIYA97 to secure the cab.





























































Update on the Super Rail Cargo set

Today I proxy bid on the Kato Super Rail Cargo sets 10-1418 & 10-1419 through RG-ROKKO and won. It's a great deal, I'm embarrassed to say how much I paid for it although it's used even these sets can command a high fee. I have this and some other nice goodies hopefully showing up next week. Below are some updated pics from the shop owner.
