As I am contemplating adding sound to HO diesel road switchers not designed for sound, I realize that it is going to take much milling of frames, weights, etc., to make room for the speakers. I know this can be easily done if you have the right machinist in a well equipped shop. I know that some people do this with a Dremel tool, but I would prefer doing it right. Any suggestions?
