Reply to "NEW ERR Railsounds Board and Cruise Lite"

Francine,

I copied and pasted these prices right from the ERR website. If you were to do a steam engine it would be $5.00 additional. These prices include the Fat Boy speaker which is an excellent speaker but, a little large if you want the sound board mounted in the powered diesel, it will fit into most tenders. It will fit nicely into a dummy B or A unit. It will not fit into a Baldwin, which is small for the Cruise Lite,  or a GP but should fit into a FM Trainmaster Dummy. Of course I need to mention I am referring to S gauge Flyonel engines which are somewhat smaller than their O gauge counterparts. I would also recommend the purchase of a Super Flex wire package that ERR sells for $5.00. Smaller speakers that will work in S gauge locomotives can be found at some of the electronics suppliers on the net and will cost $5.00 to $6.00. With many of these speakers you will need to fabricate an enclosure which is not difficult, I make my enclosures from Styrene sheet. Total cost with the additional speaker and wire $175.00. This may seem a little pricey but if you already have the locomotive and it is one you like it is worth the price. Like I mentioned in an earlier post you will not fine any of the Command locomotives in this price range.
