I guess what I'm asking is the speed control for the loco and the control to activate the bells, whistle, ect seperate when using the DC voltage method?

[trainman24]

What ever you use to control the speed of the loco will control sound.

[keithLD50]

Do you have to use the speed dial on the transformer to activate the bells and whistle using the voltage method? Thats what I might have to start with and I cant understand how it would work to activate the whistle and bells whenever you want to.

For example, you had short and long horn blasts, is there a controller that can be connected to the track to do that manually or what?

[trainman24]

If you want to control sound on demand you must use radio control. The voltage method is strictly automatic, when to go slow the bell rings, when you exceed a certain voltage a whistle pattern will blow and to blow whistle again you must drop below that voltage and exceed the limit again. Another method of sound control is DCC, digital signal sent through the track to a decoder/sound system in loco.

What controller do you use to control the sounds?

[trainman24]

In this video the only control of sound was done by amount of voltage to track. I now use radio control, AristoCraft Revolution system.

[PriceTveyron]

Those who "Disliked" this are just jealous of that awesome loco!

[altterrain7]

how do you get so many views?

[LesterDragon]

Glad I made you glad. The train and sounds are kinda cool but seeing it go around and around and around is really boring.
