what kind of track is that?

[espee5318]

It is hand laid dual gauge N-HO so I can test both HO and N scale loco's on the same test track.

Excellent! Sweet sound of EMD units. I can hear turbo in the Tunnel Motor. BTW: Is the horn a Nathan M5?

[espee5318]

I think the horn file that was in 5318 at the time this video was taken was a Nathan P-5. 99% of SP's loco's had Nathan P-3's but I like the P-5. The nice think with LOKsound is you can change the sound files with the click of a mouse. The sound files in these loco's have been updated many times sence this video was taken. I do have a Nathan M-5 horn file in my WP Cal Zephyr F units I should take a video of them. My friend Paul does my horn sound files. He recorded them off the real deal. Joe

so do you do repowering?

[spacecalander]

very nice, is it G scale, track looks like lionel

[ACLTony]

Yes, my goof. The 39 series was turboed while thwe 38 wasn't. Thanks for catching that :)

[victorgarcia8123]

very realistic, put up more videos of this locomotives on the track, send me the video

[espee5318]

You are correct the SD39 was Turbo charged 12cyl 645

[MrJaysonVilett]

Awsome builds by the way! put it as one of my favorites! Five stars.

[MrJaysonVilett]

Correct me if I'm wrong but I thought the SD39 was Turbo charged and the SD38 was not. Unless this is a non turbo specific to this SP road#

[ACLTony]

Espee,

Another compliment to you on something that some modelers over look when installing sound in 2nd generation EMD models. . Your SD39 has the correct 645E "non-turbo" engine sound, while your Tunnel motor has the 645E3 "turbo" sound (obviously 20 cylinder). The whine is quite audible. That's excellent!
