Dang, those are beautiful!! Great job on those! thank you cwrr!
But no matter how hard I try, AZL injection models are the best. Oh I wish they would make more modern BNSF freight cars! A LOT of us on here wish that as well, hopefully in time!  |

Nice! Do you plan on selling the .stl on one of the .stl websites? And the level of detail you included in the design is nice. |

From the suggestions of the brothers on this forum, all AZL MAXIs have just been replaced with MTL trucks and FT metal wheels. And DDE(Soundtraxx Digital Diesel Exhaust corresponding BEMF) sound effects works well. Howling on the slope! I love American Diesel!
At the classification yard, switching operations are going well. Ferromex ES44AC coupler was replaced with MTL coupler guts.
Can you tell us little more about doing the DDE(Soundtraxx Digital Diesel Exhaust corresponding BEMF) sound effects? |

Can you tell us little more about doing the DDE(Soundtraxx Digital Diesel Exhaust corresponding BEMF) sound effects? There are grand sound decoders(TSU-2200, Loksound5 and 5fx) cosisted by each Loco Decoder.
Sound decorders are available in a variety of prime mover types, such as 710 and 645 turbo. The TSU-2200 is for HO scale, but it needs to be powerful enough to make the huge 3W speakers howl. The DDE function will generate a notch up sound on the prime mover depending on the amount of BEMF compensation in the loco, meaning even if you are driving at notch 3 the V16 will howl when the loco goes uphill. That's fantastic sound!!
