This Steam Sound system offers the highest
expectations of any steam system available on the
market today. Not only does it have the most
complete polyphonic sounds, it also offers features
never expected of any sound sytem for the DC
operator but can also be utilized by most any
operator. Not only are the sounds polyphonic but
they are digitized at high sample rates to yield a
clear, crisp sound unlike any others. Three boards
make the complete system with three audio
channels! Two in the engine and one mono channel
in the tender.
Features:

amplifiers!

whistle offer continuous play time, you can
produce short bursts with a small echo but you
can also produce full, long whistles with
appropriate echo duration.
• Cylinder blow down - manually controlled. This
unit offers the full synchronized blow down
operating with the ball cocks open and
synchronized when pulling out, just like a real

speed or time. When slowing back up, you can
switch back to simple mode if desired.
