Hey guys,
Since it it really isn’t discussed in depth clearly anywhere I could find on the Internet, I wanted to just hop on here and talk about some of the Tsunami models over the years, the differences, and the applications. Feel free to add your thoughts about them or additional facts or stats.
TSU-1000
This Tsunami decoder was the classic Tsunami for a number of years and though it was available in a standard TSU-1000 version to be used in steam or diesel applications, there were also board versions for different types of diesel models: TSU-AT1000, TSU-GN1000, TSU-KT1000, TSU-IM1000, and TSU-BW1000. The AMP maximum was suitable for most types or models as long as room allowed, but back with the TSU-1000 you had to select a specific decoder for the specific sound desired. whether you wanted a Medium Steam sounding chuff or an EMD-710 sounding engine just to name a couple. However all these decoders then allowed for the user to select from a list of bell/whistle/horn types. These were discontinued with the introduction of the Tsunami 2.
