  1. Hi there I recently purchased 37425 with Accurscale sound from Oliva trains. For some reason the single headlight does not come on in both directions. I took sound decoder out of other one and single headlights work fine. Any ideas.
  2. Hi there recently bought a Bachmann 4 function decoder for the trailer end for the lights all works fine. Cab lights are on f2 but do not stay on. Does anyone know how to transfer it on to a different function key.
  3. There was a running example at warley with all the blue lights working when going forward. I do not know if it was on a dc or dcc.
  4. Dapol rang me this morning for payment of 59206 with sound. Hopefully should have the loco by end of the week or beginning of next week I was told
  5. I had the same issue with 47376 when the the loco turn up in the post today. One end front windows loose in the cab. Took the 5 screws out. Body come off with just cab light wires attached to the circuit board. I left them in and removed the cab interior. Fortunately the windows glazing just clipped back in and then just carefully put the cab interior back in. Should be a quick fix instead of sending the loco back to the retailer. Also had 47526 turn up at the same time . Both fantastic models from Bachmann. The sound deluxe models are worth every penny. The new Bachmann 47 and accurscale deltic set the benchmark now for model trains. I am sure the accurscale 37 will do the Same along with the 92 and 31.
  6. Hi there if you go into cvs and use cv 63 and then you can change the overall volume of the sound file. I turn my 47 down to the value of 100. Little less noisy . If that helps
  7. Sorry did not realised it has already been addressed.
  8. Hornby apt looks like a nice model. Just think it’s overpriced for what it is. If u look at rapido apt-e it’s stand out a mile regards quality and finish. That’s were Hornby apt needs to be. It just looks cheap for the price u got to pay for it.
  9. Looks like it’s been missed at the factory regards the sliver paint around the guards window. Does not look right. How these simple things can be missed I do not know. Hornbys QC seriously needs to question either on build quality or paint finish.
  10. Looking at some videos on YouTube of 150220 it does not have a etched wrap around the exhaust. So model his correct.
  11. Obviously u don’t know how to have laugh Andy lol
  12. That’s good news. Take ten years to come out though lol
  13. Just look at there future releases on there website regarding Hornby. All there 2021 and what’s left of 2020 have gone. That tells me that they have had enough of being messed around by Hornby. Also something to do with the genesis coaches direct competition.
  14. Look on Olivia trains website today says the kua wagons are in stock.
  15. Yes both 50s are the same colour. The blue is totally wrong. The orange is not right either to dull. I have 049 as well going for a full respray in the new year. All of hornbys gbrf livery colours are wrong on all locos so I was not surprise. If Hornby can not produce the livery properly then don’t do it in my opinion.
  16. Hi there I had the issue with my 66. What i did Is take the body and the cab interior on both ends and put some black paint around the area were the red light is glowing and stops the red light bleeding through . The body is pink plastic on the inside not painted. Hope that helps
  17. Just spoken to Dapol both livery versions are coming out at the same time.
  18. I preordered the loco as soon as hattons announced the item
  19. I have the sound class 66783 flying dustman from Hattons. It’s on my YouTube site under Penrith road if u want to have a look.
  20. Hi there I had the biffa 66 today mine was derailing on the points. I notice the front axel boxes were lifting up the wheels. So I took all the axel boxes out and cut them and glue them in place. Not rotating now but has cure the problem End of the day bad design by hattons. It was a nice idea but it just a bit of gimmick really. Shame lovely model just need to redesign the rotating feature.
  21. Hornby could of design the hst like the Bachmann blue Pullman. All pin connections from the powercar , through the coaches to the another power car. 2 motors and 2 sound chips.
  22. For £260 and not to get the writing straight on both power cars is poor. The hst is a good model from Hornby it’s about time it came with 2 motors for the price your paying. Bachman are now doing it with the 158, 159 and recently the 117. Just hope they offer body replacements like they did for the Class 60.
  23. I understand they have low staff at the moment. When u send something U expect it to come back as u sent it. U take the sound chip out and the speaker out. Could not be any easier than that. Even took the body of to take the sound chip out. This is just crazy. This is so frustrating.
  24. I have issues with the 66. 66433 Twice. First one sent back with the wires twisted so I could Not fit the speaker and one wire of the board. So send that one back for a replacement. Second one came put the em2 speaker and the sound all working fine. Put the body back on red lights went in the coupling end. Put the dc plug back in still no red lights. Put the sound chip back in still no red lights. Spoke to a nice lady from Hattons told me to send it back to them as it is. They will sort it out. Got told yesterday they can not fit the sound in the replacement model. It came back to day with the sound chip In the box but no speaker. I am not very happy with this. They have told I have got to wait until Tuesday. If u see this Dave I need my speaker back as soon as possible this Is poor service. How can u take the sound chip out and not the speaker to. Don’t understand the logic.
