I'm kitbashing an 0-8-0 together, hacking a cabview from the scot, but using the Goldsdorf 380 sounds, since the whistle sounds closer to a small American steamer than the scot, plus I like the deep-bellied boiler sound from the 380. Got everything hacked (now all I gotta do is figure out the alias ), and thought all was hunky-dory until I went to go ding-a-ling, and there ain't any bell! Thinking I musta screwed the pooch somewhere in the .eng file, I restarted with the actual Goldsdorf, no bell there either. Don't tell me the Orient Express drivers didn't have a ding-a-ling to play with?!

Nope, I don't think the golsdorf or scotsman have bells, Because from what I understand, The bells are a american thing, and neither locomotives are american

Son of a gun, you're right! I just checked the Flying Scotsman, hit the B key and it's the same as the Goldsdorf, nicht dingenzee-dongen. Wonder why I never noticed that before. Well, I guess it must be an American thing, no wonder all them Europeans think we're a buncha ding-a-lings. Guess I gotta steal a bell sound from someplace else.

Why a bell when you have 100 tons of steel with steam and smoke hissing out, the beat of the exhaust,the noise of the wheels on the rails,the clickety clack,the flange squeals, a working whistle...and many more I'm sure...??? If you can't hear that how can you hear a little ding a ling???
