RailSounds in the Command environment
Y our locomotive’s RailSounds system
gives you even more in the
TrainMaster Command environment.
• DynaChuff
TM . Real steam locomotive
chuffing depends on the locomotive’s load.
DynaChuff simulates both labored and
relaxed chuffing sounds. Highball down the
mainline and hear the labored chuffing of a
locomotive battling inertia. Reduce your
throttle setting, and chuffing relaxes to a
more sedate sound, as though the load placed
on the locomotive has decreased. Experience
DynaChuff on steep grades, at yard crawls,
and at speed. Another RailSounds exclusive.
• Bonus sounds like squealing brakes
with the CAB-1 BRAKE command.
• Incidental sounds you control with
CAB-1 numeric keypad commands, like
steam let-off and steam release effects.
TrainMaster Command operations
*Hearing the steam release sound lets you know
that the locomotive has received these commands.
Note!
AUX 1-9 only works if the smoke
unit switch is in the ON position.
