N Gauge Discussion / Re: Should I go for sound?Last post by Bealman - February 19, 2026, 11:19:40 PMI too, am not bothered in the least about the sound of electric toy trains, even if they're kettles. Reminds me of the Triang days of my yoof!

N Gauge Discussion / Re: Should I go for sound?Last post by Foxhound - February 19, 2026, 10:27:11 PMI run DC, no sound.
I have a friend who models the devil's gauge and all his stuff is sound. If he's running three trains at once I find it very distracting, almost disorientating. We visited a mutual pal who runs N, DC. He has some sound fitted DCC locos and was running his Kato Big Boy, and that bell clanging away all the time was quite irritating, if I'm honest. I don't think I'll be bothering with sound, somehow. Each to their own, though. #44

N Gauge Discussion / Re: Should I go for sound?Last post by Ben A - February 19, 2026, 09:38:11 PMQuote from: LASteve on February 19, 2026, 05:43:28 AMI'd never heard of (or heard) a Spirax Valve prior to my Legomanbiffo CL33 project. Now I know what one is, and I assume an approximation of what it sounds like, but there is a little element of "what's the point" on that one! Hi there, The popping of Spirax valves is primarily for those with MPDs as in reality if you walk around any group of stabled diesel locos it is a sound you'll hear a lot! cheers Ben A. #47
