Does Anyone Have, or can Make a Bell for U.P. Steam...

Unread postby Ericmopar » Sat Jul 27, 2013 12:37 pm

I really like the sounds on my Challenger V2, after replacing the whistle with b737lvr's, but the bell sounds like a cat bell...
Anyone thinking of making a new bell for the Big Boy, Challenger and upcoming FEF2?
They all use the same bell. BTW.

I'll be making a bell sound for the FEF-3 but it's still a long way off.

It's a cinch to replace the whistle and bell through dav. I did that on sd70ace pk 1 into sd70 heritage and still sounded great! The other one sounded terrible!! So is the es44ac. Doing it through rwtools is pretty fun only of you know what you are doing. Anything goes wrong you're screwed.

I thought is was a FEF-2... derp. It turns out a loco book I have has a section on the FEF-2 but shows a picture of 844 which is a FEF-3.... Hence why I thought it was an FEF-2.
