Experiencing the range of your SD 60/70's Railsounds system
W
ith Railsounds, you experience the
sounds of real railroading like never
before. Simply put, it's the most sophisticat-
ed, authentic model railroad sound system
in the world.
• Four diesel-roar levels. Your SD
60/70's speed determines the level of
diesel RPM roar—automatically, if
you prefer: idle, half throttle, three
quarters or full-speed output.
• MultiHorn ™ . A different horn sound
at different speeds—a Railsounds exclu-
sive.
• Mechanical bell. Press BELL on your
CAB-1 or transformer to begin the effect,
again to discontinue.
• Full control of RPMs. Prefer hands-
on control of diesel RPM roar? Want to
"ramp up" RPMs before pulling out, just
like real diesels do? It's easy with
Railsounds. Place your SD 60/70 in neu-
tral and increase track voltage to maxi-
mum. RPMs will continue to increase as
long as the SD 60/70 remains in neutral,
eventually reaching their highest level.
Now, decrease track voltage to the
desired speed level, press DIR on your
CAB-1 remote or transformer, and head
out, your SD 60/70 at full churn, just
like the real thing. RPMs will remain at
that level until the locomotive has
come to a complete halt. Experiment
with controllable RPMs—it's a blast!
• Reverse unit reset sound. Power
down your track, wait for 3-5 seconds,
and listen for the air-release sound—
that's the SD 60/70 telling you its Lionel
Command reverse unit has just reset to
forward operation.
• Shutdown sequence. No other model
railroad sound system shuts down like
Railsounds. Turn off track power, and
after the air-release reset sound, you
have two seconds to restart your SD
60/70. If you're done with operations,
Railsounds will commence with a realis-
tic diesel shutdown sequence about two
seconds after the air-release reset occurs.
