So long as he shows you how to put it back together again lol!

Why are the motors so loud, its not likely to be the motor itself as they are naturally almost silent, it has to be the gearing/axles that cause the problems or is it maybe the gears are in an open area that amplifies the sound due to echoes?

Could you quieten it by maybe lining the loco with some foam or polystyrene to deaden any noise waves?
