Hornby digital sound locomotives

When steam locomotives were first introduced, many people gave it the thumbs down because they believed that it could never beat horses but fast forward in time and you will see more horses on the race course than helping us humans get from point A to point B. Well, Hornby has kept up with the times by releasing toy locomotives that boast digital sound effects through their speaker, where it will dynamically change depending on where the train is (for example, passing through a tunnel has a more muffled sound). All samples used were recorded in real life environments, so expect to fork out up to $400 for that added touch of realism.
