If so what result? If you run it on a layout with HF track cleaners you can kiss goodbye to the motor in about an hour. John 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SDJR7F88 Posted December 9, 2020 Share Posted December 9, 2020 (edited) A short running session featuring the highly eagerly anticipated Midland Railway 1532 Class 0-4-4T from Bachmann edited with real sound. Sounds are provided by a number of similar class members from my sound collection, captured at various Gala and Preserved Railways over the past few years. Here we see MR No.1273 in elegant Midland Crimson Lake livery in action, hauling a short rake of Parkside Midland Clerestory coaches. Footage my recordings taken of the review sample for Railway Modeller magazine, filmed on my Photo-Plank Micro "Somerdale Colliery" Hope you enjoy!

Judging from the branding at the start, it's some of his own footage that Peco has also used. Callum does work for them....

SDJR7F88 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 (edited) Morning all, opps, I've now updated the caption for the video for those who didn't know that I work for RM and that the videos are my work. I'm allowed to use the footage to create my own videos, in this case sound edits which are one of my favourite type of videos to put together (sounds are from my recordings of 47406 on the Somerset & Dorset Railway a few years back for those wondering). As with the 1P I always make sure that the model is on the shelves at the local model shop before posting, hence uploading this week. Here's a little snap shot of the model during filming on my work bench. The main layout "Lyncombe Vale" is currently under construction, so most of my filming for the magazine and my own videos are done on a short 70cm photo-plank I created with interchangeable buildings (sorry about the mess in the room). Once again sorry for the confusing and hope the videos were ok. Edited December 10, 2020 by SDJR7F88 16 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Brasher Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 Excellent video from SDJRF88. I am tempted to buy one. The close ups of the cab would be enhanced if there was a driver and fireman.

friscopete Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 My red version also arrived a few minutes later .The blue one ran a bit hesitantly and needed a pickup correction on a driver but the red one ran perfectly through my dead frog Peco code 83 on my H0 layout .I wanted both as I like the locos and did make a brass Craftsman kit up but I baulked at the lining ,probably the one aspect of model making I havnt tried so far since a kid , so sold it on Ebay .I realised that someone would make them soonish and that the S&D would on the list probably a s a Collectors Club of some kind so waited .

No Decorum Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 On 07/12/2020 at 22:13, mikesndbs said: Hi all I am no expert on the Midland, but when I spotted this little stunner I just had to order one. I've since re-oiled my four car set and she manages it well now. Will still look at adding a little weight I think. I wasn’t going to make a comment until I heard, “What do you think?” The little machine is undoubtedly gorgeous and there is no sign of the wonky coupling rod evident in the video below. Once the loco gets up to any sort of speed, it appears to run beautifully but when it comes to running dead slow to couple up, it looks very jerky indeed. If they are all like that, it will be very disappointing. I am eagerly and a little nervously awaiting my Collectors’ Club blue model so that I can test it for myself. 19 hours ago, SDJR7F88 said: A short running session featuring the highly eagerly anticipated Midland Railway 1532 Class 0-4-4T from Bachmann edited with real sound.

As soon as I saw the wonky coupling rod, I recognised this particular model and checked back to the earlier video. This is, as Nile says, the director’s cut. A bit of a relief in that the coupling rod can be attributed to much handling of the sample. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wainwright1 Posted December 10, 2020 Share Posted December 10, 2020 (edited) Got my Midland model and very nice it is. I have noted that the payment for the S D J R model has been taken from my account, but no email to advise that it is coming. Just a thought: The Somerset and Dorset was jointly owned by the Midland Railway and London and South Western Railway. There have been quite a lot of books about it during the big four and BR period, but what was the traffic like in the pre-1923 period ? I do not have any books covering that time span on the line, so presuming that the company had only a limited number of its own locos and coaching stock, would a lot of the traffic have been Midland coaches and locos working through and down from Bath to Bournemouth and back and some L S W R locos and stock working up and back from Bournemouth and what would they have been ? Obviously with goods stock as well. Combined with the local blue stock, it would certainly make for an interesting and attractive layout theme.

I find Zimo offer the finest level of control. Something from the digitrains range would be my choice. A Jinty would sound similar I should think. Given them a ring - they may well be doing something bespoke for this model. No vested interest, just a satisfied customer 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
