Superhorn

Superhorn is a state-of-the-art module that replaces the battery and relay in your Lionel Trains. When activated, Superhorn supplies a DC voltage to old or new buzzer-type diesel horns. This module has a control to vary the voltage to the horn and is faster and more reliable than post-war type relay units. When Superhorn is activated, the diesel locomotive's speed will not slow down. Superhorn can be used in two ways:

1. In trains that have horns that were installed by the factory, you will no longer need the horn relay or the dry-cell battery. We all know the trouble they can be; relays can intermit and drop out and dry-cell batteries lose power and can leak in the train's frame.

2. For your trains that do not have horns, Superhorn will provide the activation and power to a horn that will be installed on the frame of a diesel locomotive. The same advantages are apparent for the older type train; plus your new locomotive sounds like the one you had when you were a youngster.

Features:

  • Superhorn is capable of supplying 1-2 volts of DC with a current of 750 MA
  • Superhorn is easily installed and is held in place by a self-adhesive strip
  • Superhorn fits GP-7, GP9, FM, F3, and Alco locomotives (Does not fit in GG1)

Superwhistle
This solid state module is designed to replace the whistle relay in a Lionel tender, or to add a whistle to a tender that was not factory equipped. When activated, Superwhistle supplies AC track voltage to the motor driven air whistle. It responds faster and is more reliably than the post-war type relay and can work in any position.

Superwhistle eliminates these problems:

  • Relay drop out
  • Burnt or oxidized contacts
  • Magnetic and mechanical sticking

Features:

  • Superwhistle is capable of supplying AC track voltage with a current of 3 amps
  • Superwhistle is easily installed and is held in place by a self-adhesive strip
  • Superwhistle can also be used in GGI Model #2332 and in Locomotive tenders with an operating bell such as Locomotive Model #1656
