Best simple sound modules
Posted by Nevin on Wednesday, September 6, 2017 10:37 AM

I'd like to get a couple of sound modules for the sounds of a water tank filling a locomotive tender.  I'm thinking that it would be cool to pull up to the tank and then push a button and hear the sounds of the tank getting filled.  It would also slow down the operating sessions.  I might put the speaker inside the tank.  I have seen some modules and sound boards advertised but it is hard to get an idea about how well they work and how they sound.  What recommendations would everyone make?  They simpler and easier to install, the better.  Any suggestions? Thanks.

At Boothbay Railway Village, we have been using Innovative Train Technologies sound modules with good sucess. The sound runs for a short time and shuts off automatically. Their GL120 ans GL120-1 modules are water fill sounds, and can be sampled on their site
