Posted by spankybird on Friday, February 27, 2009 7:21 PM

Has anyone down loaded any train sounds ring tones for their cell phones?

If so, who's?

My ringtone is the sound of a diesel locomotive horn at a rail crossing.  I have had it for a while and don't remember where I got it from.  The file may still be on my other computer, I'll check for it tomorrow.

Spankybird,

I emailed the MP3 file to you.

I wouldn't mind hearing horn from a GG-1 on my cell. It would drive my non-train friends crazy.Mischief

Some phones allow you to use your recorded audio as a ring tone . My phone use to Have my wife saying "Jason answer your phone already" as the ring tone. If your phone allows this you could record your favorite sound from one of your trains and use that as your ring tone.

I download the sounds ... convert them if needed to mp3's and transfer them to my phone via the computer . Works great and you have unlimited amount at no fees . Just specify the one you want as a ringtone after you play them .

 I use the sound from a N&W steam engine at a railway crossing from the O.Winston Link CDs.  Email me if you want the MP3.

 I recorded my Challenger's whistle & chuff on my cell phone & could use it as a ring tone.

Unfortunately I had the cell phone software updated & I cannot do this anymore.Sad
