Gospel Tracks Through Texas

This book may represent one of the very few intersections between Carlos's avocational interests and my own.

I keep threatening to build an HO scale chapel car and send it peregrinating about a model railroad club layout. Perhaps with a little sound mechanism mounted inside the car to play appropriate sounds. Broadway Limited recently introduced HO scale livestock cars that emit mooing and bawling sounds whenever the car is moved. Surely it wouldn't be much more difficult to make a sound unit that would play church music and/or the sound of a tiny little preacher winding up into a storm of soul-saving whenever a motion detector and a simple little electronic brain detected that the car had been stationary on a siding for a suitable period of time?
