Tomynewacoliver's Custom Talking Engines

(Tweet including Demo)

I personally didn't like it as much as his other mods since he also made him way too fast (like in T&TMR), making it harder to hear the voice and SFX. That's why I didn't include him. It uses the Talk 'n Action body with a CGI face from a FP Diesel 10, and the sound board is from this FP MFT push toy.



However, he did also convert six more engines with Take 'n Play and (Golden Bear) MFT sound boards over the last month. Charlie, Rosie, Whiff and Paxton act like TnA engines, while Emily and Belle don't since they only have the sound coaches. To add a chuffing sound, each steam engine except Whiff uses an extra board from another TnP engine*. The diesel sound for Paxton is generated by a MFT Bertie board.

* the earliest batch of TnP Talking engines (from 2010) have motion sensors to play one chuff at a time, while later ones play a continuous chuff/other sound when the button is held down; or no engine sound at all. In the demo for Charlie, his main board plays a random chuff and wheesh sound at 0:34 shortly before he starts moving again.
