Soundtrax Tsunami 1000 in Bachmann J Class

[NW Modeling List]

Hi,

Basically, it is never going to be right on all speed steps.  You can get
it closer for a range.  You need either a cam on an axle, or to live with
it. I would pick a relatively small range at slow speed and match that.

TCS wow sound is the best I have seen at cuff rate, they let you set
multiple settings across different speed steps.  They have the hooter, but
I am not sure about the J whistle.
