I would just like to add to one of my trolleys a simple bell sound. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks

I also wanted trolley bell sounds. A sound module offered
by ittproducts.com will do what you want. Activation is
by a simple on/off switch. It "can" also be activated by
a Lionel horn relay. That said, what I really wanted was
the sound activation via some sort of "remote" control
like used with a tv. I'm still looking for a way to
accomplish that way of activating. I currently use
a simple push button to activate the sounds.

A second issue, for me, is that I wanted 4 bells to sound -
2 more than offered. My simple request to the mfg brought
me a sound board with 4 bells sounding at the same price
as the 2 bell sound board. It works great but only
works in a fixed location (NOT riding in the trolley). It
is reasonably loud. The board is tiny and comes with
a very complete set of instructions that detail the
various ways of activating the sound. I've had mine for
5 years and it still works well...... still looking for
a "remote" activation method.....

Fred Miller installs lots of sound effects in his trolley models - HO, but sound is sound:

Is it real? Do you see it, too? We all see it. That don't make it real.
