This is a standalone record/playback sound unit based on inexpensive components designed to be used in local scenes to add realism. I designed a small PC board and have it available for sale. Come stop by

Appears to be a nice item. Sound adds another dimension to a model railroad...a very rewarding effort. Good luck with your venture.

Looks like a great circuit.
Do you have a circuit design that can use a timed trigger rather than a push button? (Example - using a 555 chip to trigger the sound replay at periodic intervals)
Cheers, Bill S.

Not at the moment. I do have the photocell circuit which uses the 555. I will have to look into adding jumpers on the board to allow it to be used for both functions.

I have created a modification to the board so it has a timed trigger available. Just set your delay and it will repeat and repeat and repeat....
