  1. Yes the cab light as fitted is really that red. Traction is quite poor around the bends. I was thinking of adding some liquid traction tyres on one wheel each side to improve it without compromising the pick ups.
  2. Absolutely correct, closest I could think of that had a whine close enough to a Turbine.
  3. GT 3, Gas Turbine experimental Engine

  4. Heres mine, out the box and fitted with Hornby TTS.
  5. Don't know if you have all seen this old photo. A great image of the GT3
  6. Here we go, an update to my "GM" GT3. The directional lighting with matching sound when changing direction. Just pleased I didn't run it off the end of the kitchen unit.
  7. Class 66...sound is good enough for £46 and to be honest the horns, whistles and other sound files are better than the loksound 5.
  8. Brilliant, I just read all 91 pages, well actually from 73 onwards. You all are certainly an entertaining bunch. Nothing wrong with passion, but as one of the other members mentioned, we are talking about models here. So play nice. I joined because I was one of those who bought direct from KR Models on ebay, one of those left overs. So despite all the valid comments I love the engine... I had a Hornby TTS decoder sitting around so bought a 21 pin to 8 converter and installed it. I did a video on YouTube, see the link below. Now since then I have added a capacitor stay alive to the TTS to overcome the drop outs and it's working lovely.. I actually quite like the lights. But thats just my personal opinion.
