Gadget Warehouse Time! An old gadget can still chug along!


This is the new Symphony 77 version.From Dick’s Gadget Warehouse comes the MRC Sound Station 312. This gadget is a two-speaker stand alone device that contains 18 digital railroad sounds. Perfect for model railroads it lets you add whistles, chugging sound, track clicks, “board!” voice, etc. I forgot all about it in the warehouse and recently added to my indoor railroad, which you can see in the video. It came out about 12 years ago and sold for around $70. There’s a better version out now, with improved variable SFX, at the same price. It’s the Symphony 77 Digital Sound System both from MRC. The Symphony 77 has even more digital railroad sounds. It also includes two speakers in plastic enclosures and a handheld controller. An eight-foot cable gives you mobility around your layout. It’s all Plug and play, and independent of you train set-up. It offers more than 25 different sounds, many that let you do sound-on-sound combinations. Way better than the original is the controllable speed rates for diesel and steam. Effects include: Steam/diesel modes, horns, whistles, air brake release,, conductor, bell, crossing gate, rail clacks and more. AC adapter included.
