M.T.H.’s HO locomotives feature the
firm’s most sophisticated version of its
highly acclaimed Proto-Sound digital sound and
command control onboard electronics. The
Proto-Sound 3.0 system found in M.T.H.’s HO
locomotives includes features not found in other
firm's sound systems and include a command control
receiver that can operate with M.T.H.’s DCS
Digital Command System or any manufacturer’s
DCC system.
The SD70m-2 will feature an all-new Proto-Sound 3.0
feature never before found in HO products; remotely
controlled couplers that do NOT require an
operating track section. Long a staple on our O and
One Gauge models, the HO scale Proto-Coupler
features a scale knuckle that can couple with
popular scale couplers including Kadee and McHenry
models, yet can be triggered to automatically open
anywhere on the layout using M.T.H.'s DCS system or
any DCC controller. When fired open, the
Proto-Sound 3.0 system plays a clunking sound
effect to simulate the sound of the knuckle
opening, followed by air release sounds of the
brake lines breaking apart.
Unlike other HO sound-equipped locomotives
currently on the market, M.T.H.’s diesel
locomotives include digital sound synched to
locomotive speed for an incredibly realistic
operating experience. Built-in speed control
ensures that your engine travels at scale speeds
(1:87) regardless of changes in grade, load or
through curves.
M.T.H.'s diesel locomotives are completely
compatible with most 16 volt or higher analog DC
power supplies. Under analog operation the user
retains direction control, directional lighting,
squeaking brakes and speed control and diesel
engine roar.
When operated in command mode using M.T.H.’s
DCS Digital Command System (DCS), operators will
have access to hundreds of features and sounds,
including crossing signals, a user controlled
“quillable” diesel horn that simulates an
engineer’s differing pressure on the whistle
pull cord for seamless horn pitches, triggerable
operating ditch lights and much more.
The SD70m-2 is constructed from ABS plastic and
features a host of add-on details sure to please
the most particular of modern diesel lovers. The
body rides atop a detailed chassis designed to pull
long consists and includes cab interior detail,
operating ditch lights and cab figures.
