Title: New Sound Boards
Post by: og3rail on June 13, 2012, 01:42:03 PM
Will the sound boards that are going to be in the new GP30's be available as upgrades for the older True Blast and True Blast II boards?

Correct me if I,m wrong, but I think that the new GP-30,s will come with true blast ll horn and bell that are upgradable to the new sound board when it comes out by itself.

According to Jack Lynch, the sound modules can be swapped out.  Here's the video (approx 7 minutes in):

The GP30 looks great, I hope they have slow, low, speed.

og3rail,

Initially, these will not be available for separate sale, but we will probably offer them in the future.

3rail,

Do you know if WBB plans to upgrade the sounds in steam engines as well?

Thanks

og3rail,

As new items become available they will be announced in the next catalog or at our April York show introductions. If we told you everything we would never have any surprises for you!

Regards,
