Not sure which version of trainz you're using, but, for example, in 2004, which I'm still using, it's actually quite easy. You just have to change the kuid for the enginesound in the config.txt of the loco.

So, find a loco sound you like from one of your present locos, open the config.txt, find and copy the kuid number for the "engine sound", and then open the config.txt of the loco which you want to change the sound for, and replace the present "engine sound" kuid with the one that you like.

Then it's simply a matter of deleting the cache, restarting trainz, and it should be done.

If you need more info, let me know.

1. EMD BL-2. Reason: Revolutionary design lead to the successful General Purpose series and looks awesome.

2. GE BQ23-7. Reason: It's that awesome. The cab, the B-boat series, it just is amazing.

The N

Newest Livery, the Cheeseburger Scheme

See the grey at the front, read below

With the white stripe

V/Line Passenger Mk II

VLP MkI

V/Line N



The N Class are a diesel locomotive operated by V/Line from 1985. They have formed the core of Victoria's passenger fleet since introduction, and are seen throughout the state. The N Class members are numbered N451 to N475 with all in service, and all but one have been named after rural cities in Victoria. A cab at each end gives the locomotive its distinctive shape, leading to the moniker for the class, "Dog Bones".

The N class originally appeared in the V/Line orange and grey livery, and were named after cities in Victoria, except for N453 which is named after the City of Albury, which is in New South Wales.
The class were repainted into the current red and blue livery from 1995. Most N Class members have received white stripes along the cabfronts, and cowcatchers painted yellow to increase visibility at level crossings in a program started in 2007.
In May 2008 locomotive N468 was repainted into the new V/Line livery of red with grey, white and yellow details. As of September 2008, N460 has also been painted into a variant of the new livery, with extra yellow being applied to the cab in place of the grey. The livery on N468 was modified to match N460 in late 2008. N461 had this livery applied to it in December 2008 as did N466 in February 2009.

I prefer the MkII scheme

The North British D600 warship, because to me something about it gives it character, a sad but brilliant character.
