Max I greatly appreciate your input! After a little observation what I thought was gear noise is actually the valve gear hammering on the plastic...
Do any of you have any suggestions on reducing the gear sound in the drives and improving pulling power of the Walthers 0-8-0? I didn't realize...
This is interesting. Just this afternoon a friend from Nashville called me and asked if I knew of any issues with the latest run of Intermountain...
I have to concur with all of you guys. I have 90% of the install done on the Tsunami. I still need a baffle for the speaker. Right now the whistle...
Thanks for the feedback Carl. I looked at dozens of samples of sound installations. I have several different brands of sound decoders, MRC,...
Well it's here today so I at least one of my FEFs will be outfitted with Tsunami 750. I've not seen the Loksound anywhere but on youtube and...
I guess they are Steve. I have been in contact with them several times and initially was alerted that they hay have been available soon after the...
I finally receoved the official answer from TCS that wow sound will not be ready for use with coreless motors for quite a while. Too many projects...
You might want to do a little more research. I'm holding the box of the V11 20-879-1 in my grubby little hands and the radius is 414mm on the...

I spoke with TCS yesterday the drop in decoder issue and they informed me the fix will not be ready for another 10 days to 2 weeks. While we...

I received my 2nd FEF today. The decoder tweaked in ok but as with RR Enthusiast's unit it has a slight wobble. I'm sending the new one in for...
And where my friend did you get this little bit of information?
I just checked CV 56 and it defaulted to 250. I punched in 300 but did not try a readback to check the actual value that was recorded. You are...
Man am I glad I found this thread. I've been putzing around for days trying to figure this speed issue out and was just about resigned to sending...
