Second "Steam Soundz" Sound File Released

The second steam enginesound file for Trainz 2009/2010 is now available on the Trainz Download Station (TDS). This sound file was produced to emulate the typical crisp, robust exhaust sound typical of modern (U.S.R.A. era and later) large North American steam locomotives, e.g. the Hudson, Northern, Texas, and Santa Fe type steam locomotives.

This enginesound file (kuid:123250:1107) can be found by searching the TDS, or by clicking the following link to install the file.

You can view the following video to listen to this particular enginesound file in use.



About the Video

In this exercise, a 4-8-2 U.S.R.A. (light) Mountain type locomotive, pulling a train of several heavyweight passenger cars, accelerates from 0 to about 70 MPH on a downhill stretch of the B&O's "West End", just east of Grafton, WV.

As is the case in all of the Steam Soundz videos, the purpose of the video is to provide an example of what this particular sound file (enginesound) sounds like when used in Trainz.
