Prying out the end caps is a way in some cases. But there are a lot of tenders were the end caps are soldered. A friend of mine had to cut slots between the bolsters into the bottoms of the tanks to insert decoder and speaker. The surgery is later unvisible. You could try to use a mini decoder beneath the cab roof. I wouldn't take out the weight. You might loose a lot of traction effort increased by a possible imbalance on the drivers. Regards, Volker
