Boston Sprinter Original Horn: MBTA F40PH-3C - MBTA Commuter

Description

MODDERS NOTES:

  • This mod will NOT work with the Boston Sprinter F40PH-3C (the version released alongside the route when TSW2 Rush Hour was released), as that locomotive is outdated and unsupported by DTG's standards, whereas the MBTA Commuter F40PH-3C is the more current and updated version by DTG.

Even though the Boston - Worcester F40PH-3C has a new hornsound that is quite good along with the other newly recorded sounds included, I do admittedly still prefer the original horn that the Boston - Providence F40PH-3C had. This mod replaces the BOW F40 horn with some newly mixed samples of the BPE (Boston Sprinter) F40 horn (The old external horn samples have been remixed to include extra amplification and reverb, while the internal horn samples have been remixed to include the horn release clicks from the internal BOW horn samples, as well as some reverb). Surprisingly these old sounds mix really well with this version of the F40PH-3C than the old version.
