I am beginning to think that employees or owners are cruising the Tyco forum as Some of Tyco's main stay locomotives - the 630 - is finally being produced from a high end manufacturer. Wonder if these chassis will hold a Tyco shell like the Stewart chassis will? If so - COOL as it would be sound equipped - Spirit of 76 with sound or Other Tyco 630's? Now if someone would come out with an Alco 430.....................

Odds are probably pretty good, since Bowser and Stewart have been the same company for many years. I'd guess that their shell wouldn't have to change much (if at all) and so the chassis would remain little changed, to fit that same shell.
However, depending on the packaging of all the DCC and sound gear, I'd expect to have to modify a Tyco 630 shell slightly from the inside to remove mounting posts and the like.
