zoomer1979 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Hi, recently bought a DCC Sound fitted Bachmann Class 37, advertised as Legomanbiffo sounds. It is not the usual sounds and functions and I have contacted the seller to say it was not. He insisted it is, but an early one. Here is a picture of it. I'm hoping I can confirm it is not as advertised. Neil. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Albie the plumber Posted February 17 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 17 I did have a very early LB 37 on a V3.5 many moons ago . It had a class 25 triple pump whining away on start up 🤔 The one after that would be his Spa valley version which might not be on general sale these days . That version along with all his others can be seen on YouTube for comparison . The other main sound providers at that time would have been SWD and Howes 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
zoomer1979 Posted February 17 Author Share Posted February 17 (edited) Here is a look at the function list as I've found it. The horns aren't playable F8 does nothing, flange squeak is just the one sound irrespective of speed and F11 increases engine speed and it stays that way even when stopping. Neil.

I had an SWD version that had a function button to increase the revs there was also a button to reduce it which may be F12 Never worked particularly well if I remember rightly Biffs sound projects definitely didn't have that function and neither did Howes. I would take a bet on it being an SWD project 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trade Member legomanbiffo Posted February 18 Trade Member Share Posted February 18 I don’t think that’s one of mine. Your F11 sounds like manual notching which I generally never program, choosing to do things a different way. The function key layout doesn’t ring true with mine either. I don’t ever recall putting cab lights on F7, or putting priming on its own function key. Bif 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully Charlie is in a good mood! Neil. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
