<p>I love sound! I think it adds a dimension which had previously been missing! For the same reason I also like smoking - engines, that is!</p> <p>But...</p> <p>Generic sounds emitted from tiny cube speakers don´t do the job, just as a rather thin plume of smoke doesn´t do it either. While attempts to introduce "dynamic smoke" into HO scale failed in my opinion, sound features are starting to head in the right direction.</p> <p>If I had the necessary funds and space, my choice would be 1/32 scale (1 gauge). Look at the two following vids and you understand why...</p> <p>1. Two Deutsche Bundesbahn class 50 2-10-0 heavy freight locomotives</p> <p><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/W556ur3R3B4" width="425" height="350"></iframe></p> <p>2. Deutsche Bundesbahn class V 60 0-6-0 Diesel-hydraulic switcher starting up</p> <p><iframe src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/fMaAkqU3fMU" width="425" height="350"></iframe></p> <p> I don´t have the space for even the smallest of all layouts in that scale, nor do I have the required $$,$$$ for it. As long as I have to stay in HO scale, my trains will be silent and non-smoking.</p>
