They have a chap who does it for them in house. Not sure what his name is.
-
The file is available free of charge on the ESU website if you are able to blow your own decoders or you can order a pre blown decoder from our retailers or Road and Rails.
-
Love that.
-
There will be another run next year after the class 60 run completes.
-
It should have a handbrake wheel on each side. The contact point for the wheel to the end of the thin wire on the model is very small and they do come off quite easily. Something that we will address on the next batch.
-
We are planning a new batch next year, the factory is pretty backed up with our stuff for the rest of this year.
-
No problem, this thread is here to discuss all things grid. 👍
-
If by 'grid you mean the large horn grill then yes 056 onwards. If you mean the bang plate grid then that was 001 to 090.
-
The flange squeal shouldn't be on by default. It's activated by F7 so you should be able to see if it's on. Are you sure it's the squeal and not the bogie rattle sound as that is on be default?
-
You won't overload the motor. It's designed to crawl like the real loco when loading/unloading MGRs.
-
You ought to also remove the NEM pocket if detailing the end as well, as there is a very obvious hole without the grid fitted.
-
It was to protect equipment fitted directly behind the bufferbeam.
-
Ah apologies. It seems that I misread the question. Locos from 091 onwards (our series 4 cabs with the second man's vent) were not fitted with the bang grids. 090 the last series 3 was fitted with them.
-
They all had the grid under the bufferbeam.
-
Weathering the roof grilles has really brought out the fans.
-
I would check with our retailers and see what they have left. We are doing another batch next year.
-
We put those up there because they were very much as far as we were concerned, surplus to requirement. All other functions are more important for the loco than those.
-
Ah the cause and the cure. Awesome! 🤣
-
Ew I'm not sure I want a medical condition named after me! 😬
-
Yes that's correct. At present we are not making it available as a free file.
-
Yes the roof fans currently don't operate on DC however we are having new blanking plates made that will allow for this function should you want it.
-
No you can't pick and choose announcements. Tbh they are only on there because they could be. Me and Alex didn't actually think that it was even necessary to have any station announcements at all on a freight loco but we appear to have misjudged that one.
-
I'm afraid not. The sound recording on this is our IP and as a result will only be available through our upgrade kits and selected retailers.
-
To be honest it's not a bad shout in hindsight.
-
There are certainly a lot more lighting configurations on the class 60.
