Bulleidboy Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 Not sure that they have stopped production, but certainly some locomotives (especially steam) that used to have a TTS decoder available, have now not been available for sometime (months and months).

ColinB Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 I think they make them in batches, 96RAF says that they are working on a new one, so perhaps that is the reason. I suppose we could use the normal excuse that it is due to the worldwide shortage of integrated circuits but I notice other firms products are coming back on line, notably Zimo, so that is a bit of a lame excuse.

96RAF Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 As Colin says they will need a new version of their sound decoder to support the new steam generator models as the old TTS decoder does not have an output to trigger the steam chuffs. Given the forecast date for these new steamers is way off then presumably the old TTS range will soldier on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
