another P1 question

Post by 60114 »

having finally figured out the whole set up of the Conjuguated gear on the P1, i have built that (though not 100% correct its as close as i can get it)

my next question is; The P1 had the same cylinders as a A1/A3 would this mean they sounded the same? as i intend to alias the sounds to the Blue Arrow TS A3 sounds.

Below is a few Screenshots of Progress, any of you who remember my original post about the P1 Train Simulator model(if you are MSTS drivers) i was originally building will be pleased to know that i started again and have been using drawings as a backdrop so the model should be more correct this time

Best wishes and thank you for any help in advance

P1

Although the valve gear and cylinders are similar to the A1, don`t forget that the P1 wheels are only 5`diameter as opposed to the A1 6`8", therefore the exhaust beats should be that much faster for a given speed.
