A Holiday Miracle - Music on the Train

[ZachBell4400]

How does one actually put music on a random passenger car, such as on the stage boxcar of the CPKC Holiday Train? Is there a way one can install a sound source on a piece of rolling stock? People from all walks of life haven't seen just the CPKC train, and many Class I's such as BNSF and CSX have similar trains, just not as festive or bright as CPKC's.

I don't think it's difficult. There's a group that adds "next stop" audio. Maybe it's just a matter of replacing it.

Like the interior sound of a passenger car, a .wav file has to be placed in the .sms file used by the car. All should have a line like this in the .wag file: Sound ( "GenFreightWag2.sms" )
Just have to script one that plays your choice of music.

I see, now my question is answered. Thanks!
