FT versions can be easily created using the suitable engine sound from the North American selections. These sound files are fantastic quality, a real move forward since the release of the original Murphy Sound files.
ESU have recently introduced an option called "Full Throttle" to there North American range of sounds. These can be downloaded and the Irish horn and station announcements edited onto them using the ESU Lokprogrammer. I have done this and the engine sound is terrific. See the video in post number 11.
I would love to see container flats or fertilizer bogie wagons myself but I'm sure we will buy whatever the projects are if they are as good as the ballast wagon!!!
Great to see things progressing. Ballast wagons 98%, Bubbles now 90%, Project 3 25%, and Project 4 5% underway. Super time to model Irish railways, I will certainly be selling some North American stock.
The great thing about using ESU common sound files is that you don't have to pay for each loco's sound file. You can simply load it into the chip using the ESU Lokprogrammer and even update and modify the sound according to your needs.
Just recently ESU loksound have upgraded lots of there GM engine sound files for the american market. I took one and edited it to include irish 071 horn sound file and it sounds great with the new feature called full throttle. Sadly I cannot video it as I am in the middle of a house move but as soon as I get a chance I will. I think you will like it and the engine sounds are also available for the 121's.
Exciting stuff!!!!
If this sort of announcement had been made by a British Model Train manufacturer on a forum we would have at least 30 pages of guessing, fighting, arguing and finally condemning the manufacturer for ever making an announcement in the first place!!!!
OK I will start the guessing game.
1.Bogie Fertilizer wagon
2.Cement Wagon
3.NIR Class 80 (DREAMING)
I think the church would survive without the Model Club income!! The church should be thanked for the support it gives the club through supplying premises, heating and lighting.
Its not up to us how any show is organised and this remark is totally uncalled for. If you don't like don't go.
This show is about displaying are hobby to the public and the club always seem to have a lot of young people involved.
