Hi Kirley,

 

Going back to your spoil train sequence, how do you 'moderate' the two locomotives so the the rear one for example is not pushing the wagons too hard against the lead engine, which would presumably cause the wagons to derail? Is this a benefit of DCC?

 

Sorry for missing this question Steve, yes the wonders of DCC, the two locomotive are part of a 'consist' so you regulate them under one control.  DCC -would not be without it.

Two Sulzers running on Kirley Junction.

 

 114 with 4 wheel flats and CIE 20’ Containers, 107 on passengers duties.  I got a couple of CIE containers + flats from Leslie McAllister so it was a GOOD excuse to run them.

Made from Alphagraphix card kits and getting a run out on Kirley Junction.

 

Had to Double check here that Top piccy could pass as the real deal! Fair play!

Good to hear from you Mike.  Now you are testing me, I had to look back to 2015 when I built the Mogul.  I used Hornby Class 4P 2-6-4T Fowler locomotive and it must be a few years since I last ran it. What are you up to at the moment?

Two AEC Railcars, CIE’s 2600 Class, modified to run as a Control Car and a Connector Car in Pull-Push mode with the re-engined C Class providing the traction. A Laminate is the Intermediate coach.

Moroccan Red and Caribbean Blue eh.   I had no idea I was riding in a train with such an exotic livery even when trundling past Kilroot on the way to Larne on a rainy day.   I do think that this was the best NIR livery though.

 

Great model coach liveries and Locos.

 

Cheers

Kirley junction Inventory 

 

I'm doing an inventory of my railway collection, started with the coaches and now on the Railcars.  I put together a video of my collection hopefully in chronological order.
