Used to have a powerstroke starting up as my ringtone. But then that phone went through the woodchipper. Too cheap to pay for redownloading the file.

Wouldn't be too hard to nick sounds from MSTS or similar depending on the phone.

It's the 3rd rail that makes the difference.

The LG6100 has a train tone already on it, There are many applicarions that allows you to download ringtones, you should find one there, depending on what provider you have.

I have only looked online at Ring-tone 'stores'. I didn't know Radio Shack offered ring-tones. Thanks for the advice - I'll look there. Bill (ww)

Did you try Radio Shack? That to my way of thinking would be the most obviouis place to go. [:)]

I would love to get that sound or the sound of the ding-ding-ding-ding-ding of a grade crossing.

Thanks for you help!
