o gauge nut

wish i could build a layout like this its superb said a man just moving back from 7mm to 4mm and looking for inspiration cant wait for full lenth trains again

hi Andy look forward to seeing them on your layout as i love 47s and 37s as they are what i grew up with. i think its just the sound of them it never goes away

dont you think its funny that nearly all us train guys also enjoy a take away as well

some ones been busey then. looking superb andy dont know how you find the time to do two

hi bob yes it does look good better than my work for sure i think the fuel tanks are djh that have been modified and have a very large speaker underneath . the buffer beam has been changed for a brass one with brass buffers the correct size and to top it off it has a top notch paint job and all the lights work independently on different functions

ANOTHER NEW ADDITION THAT I BOUGHT OF KEN A FULLY TRANSFORMED Heljan CLASS 47 WITH SOUND . SO PLEASED WITH THIS LOCO. THE WORK THAT HAS GONE INTO THE FUEL TANKS LIGHTS AND BUFFER BEAMS IS SUPERB

thank you both i will give it a ago later but dont expect anything as good as yours as it will be recorded on my phone

great video mate how do you upload one please terry

how do you upload a video please its no good without sound lol

still to be weathered yet

just to show another new member to the fleet sound as been added and a base reflex speaker and it sounds great. i wanted to add a video but it says files to big when i choose files so how do you lot upload videos

takes me back a few weeks this video as i blew all the lights when fitting sound to my class 47 . forgot all about resistors on the older models. so i have replaced all the lights with new led s . but the only problem is they are a bit to bright. so can i add bigger resitors to dim them down a bit ?

I totally agree as with my first attempt at 7mm i went down the road of kit building and found it very frustrating that i could not build and paint the kits to the standard that i wanted and no were near the standard of some of the people who build and paint and repaint on here. i i do understand that for a lot of modelers this is the fun part. thats great if you have the ability and the patience . but for me i like to save my pennies and buy one ready to run straight out the box. also i think it has bought a lot more people over to the 7mm side witch is good as it keeps new models cumming out and prices down as its a competative market now with all the new manufactures

looks stunning well worth all the hard work
