The sound cars are not steam or whistle sounds. They are "real railroad train sounds". Probably wheel screeching, etc. It is suggested that one be placed every 5/6 cars to simulate a variety of real train sounds. Could get expensive!

$600 for an engine: $130 for a boxcar. Thank goodness this stuff is made in China; otherwise things might get REAL expensive!
If there is hope about bringing in "new blood" into this hobby, then who ever it is better have DEEP pockets.
