We are able to obtain to order ESU LokSound 4 decoders with sounds by Legomanbiffo. This range of sounds now covers most British diesel and electric locomotive classes still in service from 1980, the 1950s mechanical and modern diesel-hydraulic multiple unit trains, plus several types of electric multiple units.
Recorded from real locomotives and trains a wide variety of locomotive, engine and optional playable sounds are featured including brakes, flange grind/squeal, air system compressors and valves, guards' whistle, door opening/closing etc. Some sounds can run without the engine 'on' replicating the auxiliary systems which are run before starting and automatic water drain drip valves. DMU and EMUs also feature appropriate gear-change, door-close warning tones and driver/guard bell/buzzer!
Sounds are available on ESU LokSound 4 decoders with 6 pin, 8-pin or 21 pin connection options.
Micro decoders are supplied where these are better suited to models with restricted internal space.
Fuel tank speakers are available for some models.
Please note prices may vary depending on the parts needed to fit specific models. Please advise the sounds and decoder required on ordering. Extra pricing quoted is a guide only, applies to most models with these options.
