I was thinking of upgrading one of my trainsounds unit to this. What does it have to offer soundwise? Does it have crew talk? Is the speaker any good? I was thinking of getting the SD sound module as they don't have one for a GP38.

Trainman,
Go to web click on video and then ditch upgrade. This has generic diesel sound.

Trainman-
Electric RR's Railsounds Commander will add Railsounds 4.0 to your locomotive. In terms of sounds you will have startup, four diesel RPM levels (idle through full throttle), horn (short horn and long horn), bell (single or continuous hit), squealing brakes, coupler release, direction change, and shutdown. You will also get CrewTalk and TowerCom, but CrewTalk is limited to a single unintelligible radio communication sound, and TowerCom is limited to a single "All clear ahead - you may proceed" announcement.
Electric RR's SD or GP7/9 module would work well for your GP38, as both produce sounds appropriate for a 16 cylinder EMD prime mover.
