When active on the prototype, would these lights be illuminated on each unit in the consist, or just the lead locomotive? I do not know anything about the LSL system but would love to do this on my units equipped with this light.
Thanks for your comment. I am trying to make a sound file as close to prototypical as possible for the IR Alco’s. Check out my video on the turbocharger whine 😁
Hi, thanks for the comment. Google “WDM3D Diagram Book”, there is a pdf with the major dimensions. The rest I estimated by scaling various photographs.
I see this is 2 years old! I just found it! I hope you get to see this comment. Very, very nice presentation! Thank you so very much for your time making this. I looked at doing this a couple of times, and got nowhere. By following your video I am now sure I can do this! Again! Thank you!
Great instructions for a very complicated procedure. Thank you. Have you ever created a Grade Crossing Horn Sequence or seen one for LokSound? Soundtraxx Tsunami includes it on the F3 function button. It is very convenient.
Glad the video was helpful to you. I have not done a Grade Crossing Sequence, but you can find an example at this blog site: hostlersinn.blogspot.com/2023/03/grade-crossing-signal-for-esu-decoders.html?m=1
Which Loksound file are you working on ? Is it a diesel, steam or electric sound file? North American or European? Each is set up slightly differently.
I just realized those WDM locomotives are derived from the ALCO DL535 series just like the locomotives on white pass and Yukon railroad and Durango and Silverton railroads
Actually, the broad gauge WDM’s are 16-cyl 251B (DL560C) and variants, originally at around 2600HP and then updated upto around 3300HP. Thanks for stopping by my channel.
Do you have the Lok Programmer with you? Can you help me put a sound file on my ESU Lok Sound 5 decoder. The sound file that I currently have does not have a very good sound quality. Please let me know if you can do that for me. I will subscribe your channel if you can be some help here....regards :)
Hi Desh, I can help you with the Loksound file, depending on your location. Though, in my experience, poor sound quality has more to do with the speaker/enclosure than the sound file. All ESU Loksound 5 files are recorded in CD quality and are generally quite good, especially their HiFi sounds. You may want to check the speaker/enclosure in your model first. Which sound file and model are you working on ? Thanks.
Nice work bro . Well done . Could you please tell me how did you get the plane or drawing . If you drew please give me the drawing . because i building too. I hope you will give answer soon.
“Please sir bro give me all your dimensions how tall what materials please oh please oh pleasase!!!’” 😂 Some commenters are rediculous. Anyways, awesome piece! I am now inspired to do more scratch building instead of moping over rtr stuff I want but cannot afford. 👍
