Not to open a can of worms, but could one put a sound decoder in a freight car?

My general conclusion re cutouts was it probably wasn't worth doing, though it was better thank trying to fill the cars with model animals. Only if your layout is at eye level and you are really looking can you tell whether a North American stock car is loaded or empty as it sits on the rails.

Hi,
I, for one, would appreciate it if someone who has already done the "cutouts thing" would
post the artwork used in filles or photos. (Why re-invent the wheel?)
