They've never been easy for me to find on their website, but now I simply cannot find them anywhere.

Where were they hiding. You are right, it's not easy to find.

Same as Rapido which says they have them in the instruction manual that comes with their diesels (I have an HO GP38 for my switching layout). The manual also syas if you cannot find them, bug them about it. That has not worked for me yet...

Well . . . tell us where they are, or how to find them.  That would be helpful to other lost souls.

The files are under the product support tab for the specific locomotive.

OMG! I couldn't find them again for the longest time! Jbub has it right.

Here's where I found the SD40T-2 file, but this doesn't seem to appear with all of the individual SD40T-2 models for some reason....

https://www.scaletrains.com/rivet-counter-n-scale-emd-sd40t-2-southern-pacific-kodachrome-post-1980-details.html

So, for this one, you have to click on the loco number you want, then click on the "product support" bar below the "add to cart/wishlist" buttons and the file will (hopefully) appear.

Surprisingly difficult to find!

I downloaded the sound files from their NW SD45 page to use for my new Atlas 45's but they didn't come with any sounds, just function settings. Has anyone experienced this before?

Depending on which file some are only lokpilot files and others / most are loksound

They need some help in my opinion doing the web site.  I looked for the DRGW SD45 and can not find specific loksound files and under some of the other models you find files for other locomotives.

Under the one NW 45 no files and under the bicentennial model you file one loksound and one lokpilot file.

Not complaining just pointing it out.

Looking at the file names it seems LS5 might be LokSound v5 and LP5 might be LokPilot v5.
