Today saw the second Bachmann 90 (90034) sound fitted and also the first run out of DB 90 number three, 90024 on a flying lap of the Topp Trains test track, trust my phone to die in the recording of this

it's going to be sooooo much better with DCC sound, which it will have in about two or three weeks time. 90034 had been having some teething issues a few times back whilst on a run out at Rose Heath but I understand these to have been cured and with her now sound fitted also, my man in the know is going to help me to configure a consist set up for operations out of Johnson Street, DB 90's will still work in singular form also, on ECML, GEML and GWML supporting works and will be back and forth from Johnson Street.

In addition to the 90s, there will also be operations of 60s, 66s and 67s.
