yes I agree the sound is anoying all the time. it is neet though. if lionel were to redo it at the very least they need to have the compersser sounds wait to come on longer between sound activation. my weaver one the sound comes on then only stays of less than 5 min it seems then comes back on and this is just repeated over and over untill you finnally get tired of hearing it and take the car off the track and set the switch underneath the car to off. at least a volume pot to turn the sounds down would help as the sound is a bit loud.
although I did make a speaker enclosure out of a shaving cream can top. my speaker was loose and just rattling around in the car. so I re hot glued it and while I was at it added the plastic cap off a Wal-Mart sound and body shave cream can. it was just the right diameter and improved the sound a lot. now if err would remake the mini commander two I could controll the on and off from my cab two and train link it into a consist like my lionel vision line pfe reefers.
just a thought here but lionel could have a real winner if they could have a visionline reefer out of this model with new modern unloading and loading sounds. plus screen controls for all the compersser sounds and such on the cab 2 display. I would by at least a few of these. I have two sets of the visionline pfe reefers and love them. a set for more modern era trains would be nice. maybe a good seller too.
