Broadway Limited Stock Car w/ cattle sound

At first I thought... what? cattle sounds? whaaaat?

It sounds like it would be cool for about 10 minutes, then just get irritating.

My at first thought was how silly and toy like can that be.  A friend of mine purchased one, and we had so much fun with it I now have 6-8 of them running about.  Cows, pigs, and chicken sounds.

And why not horses, pigs and sheep too? ... Probably best to use such sound effects only during loading and unloading processes.

One member of our club has one, and it gets run in a train during open house.  He has the volume turned down to an appropriate level, and it is actually not annoying in a "mooooo-ving" train.  If you get one of those idiots that leaves the thing at the factory-default sound level and parks it in front of you for an hour, that's a horse of a different color.

I know this doesn't answer the OP's question, but we had a club member with a chickens box car from BLI.  It got irritating real quick.

Get one of those greeting card with sound, and a "record your own message" feature.  Download some "moo" audio, and put together a sound file.

 

 That is a pretty good idea Mister Beasley. I don't think I need any cow sounds (I heard one at my LHS) but, I would not mind some other rail sounds. Any idea what one of those cards cost? I never seen one, but I don't spend much time in cards shops.

Are you up for an experiment?  I haven't tried this myself, but I have another application for a sound effect, and I don't want to spend $35-40 for it.

Get one of those greeting card with sound, and a "record your own message" feature.  Download some "moo" audio, and put together a sound file.  Then, record the sound file into the card.  Take the card apart so you're down to the battery, chip and speaker, and install it in a stock car, with a mercury switch (like in an old-style thermostat) to trigger the sound.  It will take some tweaking, but I'd imagine you could get this to work.

I think your best bet would be to do a "Search" on Ebay, save it and make it a daily item. If there's any out there, you'll get a heads up from Ebay... Good luck as they're as scarce as hen's teeth!!!
