Hornby Vent Van with Sound - Era 3/4/5. The success of Hornby's TTS
decoder has given enthusiasts the chance to experience a value for money soundtrack on
their layouts, with the sounds of diesel and steam locomotives adding an extra layer of
atmosphere.
To further enhance this atmosphere, Hornby's engineers have considered
how other sounds contribute to 'setting the scene'. Stand on any busy station, or
observe the workings of a bustling freight depot and it is soon obvious that there are a
whole range of sounds, from the grind and squeal of wagon wheels, the application of
brakes, and the 'clank' of couplings, to the movement of passengers, station
announcements, a 'hubbub' of conversation and carriage doors closing.
The equipping
of a wagon with TTS sound means that it can be placed stationary within the layout, to
give a richer depth of sound, or can be included anonymously within a rake of wagons,
its soundtrack blending with the sounds of other TTS locomotives.
