The high point of the industrial preservation calendar, the Foxfield Railway gala took place on July 28/29 with six engines in steam. Visitors were Andrew Barclay 0-4-0ST No. 22 from the Bowes Railway and Hawthorn Leslie 0-4-0ST Asbestos from the Chasewater Railway.
All of the locomotives took their turns on the lines signature Foxfield bank with mineral trains.
The sounds here, recorded on a preserved 'Black Five' operate in similar fashion to the '8F'. Like the '8F', the function keys provide the same selection of sounds including a Stanier hooter and an eight-second sequence of clashing wagon buffers to be used when shunting.
With sound-equipped diesels you get the full engine start-up sequence on function No. 1. This is longer and more complex on some diesels than on others. The Hymek has a two-tone horn and the loose-coupled wagon sequence as additional functions
This is Brian's first crack at a three-cylinder locomotive and the sound is very different. These models have been set with a low top speed in order to make demonstration simpler, but 'production' models would have more realistic speed settings. This model also has the various injector and blowing off sounds, plus the distinctive Bulleid whistle.
The system is set up so that when you reduce power, the locomotive 'coasts' with clanking rods. Re-apply power and the exhaust 'chuff' returns. The function keys provide sounds of injectors, blowing off steam, firehole door opening and closing, buffer 'clash', and coupling-up.

This is the most recent development of Class 25 sound, which was the first of Brian's models that we demonstrated. This, too, has the full engine start-up sequence, and loose-coupled wagon sequence, and even includes a railwayman's voice at one point!
