Railworks America

I recently bought Donner Pass because I know the update is coming soon, and after playing it I realized I coudnt stand the sounds on the locos especially the SD40 & the SD40T so does anyone know of any sound upgrades such as engine sounds and horn upgrades for the DP locos?

I have one chilling on my PC waiting for RSC to email me. If they decide not to release it, up to RWA it goes!

Ok! do you think they would release it with the DP update?

Hopefully! I have Dash 9 and SD40 sets waiting for the Upgrade right now.

Two different P3s. An old cast on the SD40s, new cast on the Dash 9s.

The P3 was the most common horn on SP if im correct

You could use simer4's sounds for the SD40-2

You would have to mess around with a few files though, Im stupid when it comes to that stuff

From what I understand, SP used a custom P3 arrangement?

Nope. P124. Pretty standard. The only difference is how they put them on the manifold, which doesn't change sound. I know quite a bit about horns.

(me on Far left, and thats my Ram)

So this must be the place horns dream of when the rest of their loco is scraped.

Nice!

And your friends and the assembled fanfare ....

These horns are big!

Are you allowed to blow a train horn on your car instead of a honker to warn that old lady crossing the street?

I even saw a video on one of those horn sites of a large flatbed truck with ship's horns with like 6 or 8 foot bells mounted on a rack. The guy "playing" them at some assembly didn't dare to turn the full pressure on.

Woahh ho ho.. !! Woody, thats just

Amazing collection!

Ehhhh not "legally". I've done it when the trucks stock horn isnt enough. Here's results of the honk that day here: http://hornwhistleboard.com/viewtopic.p ... ale#p44319
