Greetings all,
I'm looking to buy and inexpensive (cheap) railking subway set. Not really concerned about roadname etc. There are some locosound sets out there priced to move, but I'd like some feedback on the sound system. Is it Horrible?
Thanks

Yes it is horrible!!!!
That is what I feared. Thanks Greg
This is a nice set at a great price. Proto Sound 2 and MTA logo on the sides.

This is a great deal on a 6 Car premiere subway set from Charlie Nassau.
OOOh that MTA set looks like a winner. Thanks Greg!
I have a Locsound R42 E train and a Redbird train. The redbird sounds horrible so I just turn it down.
They should have called it staticsounds instead of locosounds
Real subway sound is horrible. If the real sound were put into the toy trains, we would be complaining about the humdrum of steel wheels on steel rails. Yuk!
I have a set of Rail King LoV cars with Locosound running alongside BMT Q cars with Proto 2.0 sound. The Locosound does not stand out, and it is not objectionable.
My guess is that both sound sets resemble El trains, not subway trains.
PS, I rode the IND E, F and D lines for many years in 1960s.
