Virginian H-16-44 horn and bell?

[NW Mailing List]

Thanks!

They do list the M3 as a choice that I can change it to, but it was
defaulted to a single blat horn.

VGN used Nathan M3 airhorns on all Fairbanks Morse diesel motive power.

 

I would have thought Rapido would have would have atleast stated that in the
accompanying paperwork or atleast on the prototype information page on their
website. 

 

I also thought they came pre-programmed with correct road specific noises..

 

Regards

Can anyone tell me what horn the Virginian H-16-44 locomotives used? I
picked up a couple of the Rapido models and I want to select the right horn
from the menu so it sounds right.

Also, did these use a brass or steel bell?

 

Thanks
