Realistic horn and bell sound system for Williams NW-2 Diesel | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

John OchabOGR Forum Member SUPPORTING MEMBER

I have (3 ) Williams NW-2 diesel engines with a ringing bell trying to find a realistic sounding horn and bell for these engines, power supplied by an AC Transformer. Thanks in advance for your response.

I would just go with a full sounds upgrade:

This is a Williams NW2 with ERR Railsounds. I believe its an EMD board for a geep.

The tinny sound is due to the tiny stock Williams speaker. While this engine has TMCC its being operated in conventional with no TMCC signal. Transformer triggered horn and bell. Prime mover is a bonus. Sound will be much better if you use the supplied ERR speaker.

The ERR GP7-GP9 RailSounds Commander would probably be a decent match as far as the prime mover.

Wouldn't the F3/F7 RailSounds Commander be a better match, since there is on a single-ton horn?

Good point Matt, I was considering the prime mover but not the horn.
