MTH PS3/DCC Question
Posted by Phil1361 on Wednesday, January 19, 2011 8:40 PM

I just bought e new MTH engine with PS3. It's the first O scale engine to have PS3 like the HO locomotives. I am running with my NCE DCC system. I'm very happy with it but I was wondering if there is a way to access the quillable whistle from the DCC system remote? The locomotive manual doesn't even say how to do this using DCS (which I have from my 3 rail days). Thanks in advance.

The quillable whistle is only available with DCS on MTH loco's.  It won't work on DCC.

Some DCC loco's such as Broadway Limited have quillable whistle available using DCC.

Thanks a lot. I had a feeling that was the case but wasn't sure.
