Armstrong Powerhouse presents a sound pack for the class 442 electric multiple unit.

How is a Pro sound pack different to a standard one?

If a sound pack is classed as being Pro, it means that most, if not all, of the sounds used have been recorded using state-of-the-art equipment at an especially organised recording session. This allows us to acquire the exact kind of sounds we require to create the best experience within the simulator. In the case of this pack, all static sounds were recorded from a selection of class 442s at Lovers Walk depot, Brighton.

Main Features

EE546 traction motor sounds

Distinctive compressor

EP and auto brake sounds

User operable two-tone horn using the space-bar and 'B' key

Bogie run sounds to give the sensation of movement

Cab instrument sounds

Realistic sound fading effects

Accurate volume levels. This means the quietest sounds are as quiet as they should be in relation to the loudest as per reality.

1 hour 10 minute scenario for the DTG London to Brighton route which sees you drive a 10 car class 442 between London Victoria & Brighton, during the evening rush hour.

If all of that wasn't enough, we have gone beyond just the sounds and implemented some brand new features:

Prototypical 'camshaft' traction system

Realistic EP/auto brake operation

Driver only operation (DOO)

Semi-functional in-cab destination computer

Automatic unit numbering. Both driving vehicles in a unit automatically given matching unit numbers and all five vehicles given their corresponding vehicle number.

Please note, this pack is NOT compatible with any external controllers such as the XBOX or RailDriver.

During the installation process, this pack will be applied to the DTG Gatwick Express Class 442. Please see below for a video of the sounds in action:
