I got so wrapped up talking about the smoke unit I never said how awesome this J is with the new upgrade you did Rodimus...especially the whistle!

[@jonnyspeed]

I've been wanting to try this myself. Looking forward to the how-to video. It's been 3 weeks... Let's get going :)

[@RodimusPrime]

Jonathan Hatfield been some very busy times lately....ive fallen behind on repairs for my local shop

[@struck2soon]

Whistle sounds great!

[@PantherLineProductionsofOhio]

Any chance of a how to? I have a Paragon 3 BLI MILW S3 I'd love to add Loksound to.

[@SeanLeTV]

Awesome! ...but I wish the background is not so white.

[@DGModelworks]

Dude! That is awesome!

[@EtobicokeCentralRailways]

Excellent! Great videos, sub'd :)

[@WhiteRiverRails]

That is really cool!

[@nathanburke1224]

I LOVE THIS i really want to see the how to video now

[@jakes_trains]

Are you planning on still doing a how to?? Very interested in it!!

[@peterd.9893]

Loud whistle!

[@pageba2010]

Whens your How To coming? Need to know

[@ianisaacs2340]

How did you quill the whistle??? That is awesome!

[@mjmonjure]

Very Cool!!!, Now if you can get Rolling Thunder to work, I will really be impressed :-)

[@jessedax7333]

In my opinion the MTH whistle on the engine they did about a year ago is closest to the prototype's. Compare it with the sound in videos of the 611 excursions last summer.

[@RodimusPrime]

I went on the 611 excursion in 2015 and this is pretty dead on compared to my video of 611 in VA

[@moxieman5246]

Nice

[@CPR2839]

Waiting for the how too!!!

[@Trainmaster909]

Sounds like the FEF-3 Sound File

[@RodimusPrime]

It is.....because they have the same whistle

[@Trainmaster909]

@@RodimusPrime I know, both have Hancock 3-chimes.

[@rickbewier9931]

That is great! How did you wire it?

[@nathanburke1224]

have you tried hooking up the fan unit to the ESU Decoder and tried the TRIGGER SMOKE CHUFF and/or Smoke Unit (Controlled by Sound) effects? im going to be trying that someday with an MTH engine, the only thing the mth engine will control is the heating unit

[@RodimusPrime]

Trouble is i dont know what wires control what on the bli smoke unit

[@nathanburke1224]

@@RodimusPrime rewire it?

[@gp3yt]

Rodimus, after looking at this video....would it be possible to pair / piggyback a smoke unit with a ESU (or other decoder with synced smoke) and retrofit into a locomotive (plastic or brass) that did not originally come with DCC? Say an older brass PFM, Bachmann, or Rivarossi??

[@RodimusPrime]

Its been done, im closer to understanding but not quite there yet....upcoming video is going to be on some tests with a paragon 2 loco running a non bli decoder. Im not fully sure whats going to happen yet...we will see soon

[@gp3yt]

@@RodimusPrime The Seuthe smoke generators put out steady smoke, whereas maybe a fan generated smoke unit would be the way to go

[@thomaso5176]

That is very cool. One thing, is the high pitch whine normal in both the model and the prototype?

[@DelayInBlockProductions]

Thomas O Yes, that’s the dynamo.

[@mopacproductions6669]

im trying to find a bli 611. do you know were I can get one?

[@RodimusPrime]

Ebay or fb groups is about your only option right now unless you happen to find an actual train shop that still has them

[@EthanTheIdioticTankengine]

So im gonna guess this tutorial will never come

[@RodimusPrime]

At some point. More of a time and money thing. I had a recent paragon 3 failure so I need to make sure that wasnt a fluke.

[@elemerkovacs838]

Well, its farly not synced.
