Tend to agree, was considering making it louder during all the changes I was making yesterday but didn't get to it...
Any luck with making it louder?

GFX: Updated the smokebox doors/fronts to match barrel
FIX: Updated manual with Injector details
ADD: BR Worn Midland version (also added to Quick Drives)

Nothing about making the whistle louder though.

We don't personally think the whistle needs making louder. The whistle isn't particularly loud on the real thing to be honest.

I've actually come to the same conclusion - not that I would know how the whistle of the real thing sounds, but its volume feels a bit on the lower side only when the engine is at speed, which is probably how it should be...

Back in the day, I recall that the whistle was thin and reedy, such that we all knew when an "Ossie" was coming!

Hi, has anyone else had issues coupling the loco to the wagons on any of the scenarios on TS2020?
Thanks Fred

Nothing of the sort. What scenario are you referring to exactly?
