I would like to know what is available soundwise.
LGB make trams with 'tram noises.'
However,they don't make the sound available in their sound modules.(I don't understand how they don't make them available since they exist on the trams.)
Maybe the LGB bloke (is it Buckso or something)can explain this.
I hear and read about a lot of US systems but I would like some more info on them before I commit.
It has to be MTS compatible.HJ ! Don't go there!


Hi Troy,

[}:)][}:)]Misplaced the 20 foot pole, so I can't touch it!

Seriously now, have you looked at ESU? The Loksound decoders can be programmed with your own sound, so you're in charge of what comes out of the speaker.
Was it you who also uses Motorola? Because ESU covers that, too.

There is a lot more, lot more versatile and better sound out there than the generic LGB boxes. Besides if you compare feature by feature the LGB boxes are outrageously expensive (price/results), but yes they come in a Red Box!
