Hello, I'm new to this forum and I just wanted to know if there was a manual way to blow a train horn in Locomotion

Do you mean when you drive the trains manually?

I suppose it might make it fun for another 5 minutes.

A quick question in relation to sounds in Lomo.

I have a SoundBlaster Audigy card and when I'm playing Lomo half the sounds cut out if i lay track/road etc. I can only hear the loco running sounds against the track etc., but no horns, rail crossings or anything else.

Any way to fix this?

EDIT: Fixed the problem. Just doesn't like me using headphones :P

When using SB, you have to put "speakers on", when using the head set.
Otherwise you mis a lot of sounds.

I had the same problem, so I went into my settings and changed the Sound device from... oh I don't know, whatever it was... to one of the other options... :D

Try that... Sorry for not being real descriptive.
