The Black Hat Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 I can see this proving to be very popular. Will be down for getting myself one at some point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Decorum Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Only problem is the sound file includes the mpv too, you'd only need the generator and water sounds. I'd say a 66 or loco of choice file with a water jet add on would be better. Something to suggest to Biff now? I think I'll go for lightly weathered so the 66's don't need to be totally brown To that end how heavy is the weathering you are offering going to be Dave? I’m afraid I didn’t express myself clearly. I wasn’t thinking of using the MPV sound project so much as reproducing the relevant sounds. Your idea of adding the sounds to a loco sound project is a cracker. Straightforward and no hacking the train about. Good thinking, that man! It would also be useful to modify the lighting wiring on some locos for head and tail operation. Failing that, a little tape over the contacts at the inner ends would be quick and easy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TangerineWizards Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Great choice by Hatton's. We're getting two models in one really with the RHTT and the FEA. Also great they are continuing to invest in new castings and releases. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pegleg90 Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Great news, weathered set and extra wagon pre-ordered! Will these have any lighting options for night time running? Model of the year candidate next year??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MRDBLUE17 Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Hi everyone, This is an exciting announcement and I’m sure will be popular. Interestingly quite a few of us had put RHTT in our top 5 wish list that is running on the DEMU Forum at the moment. Will be nice to have something different for the DRS traction to haul. Well done Hattons. Thanks Mark 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
shanks522 Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Well done Hattons, These have been long overdue IMO, looking forward to getting a couple of sets. Graham. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leavesontheline Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 Great news Hattons! I'm guessing the weathered versions are going to be more popular than the pristine! Good to see the typical formations info too. Is there any significance to the 'insulated wheel' - any plans to add a mini electric pump for added realism?! A 'misting' device would create a prototypical cloud of water as it speeds past! Seriously though, does the prototype feature lighting? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Coryton Posted November 28, 2017 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 28, 2017 Is there any significance to the 'insulated wheel' - So that it doesn't short out the track when you put it on? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Decorum Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Perhaps Hatton’s thought it should be mentioned. Do you remember when Heljan released a batch of hoppers with uninsulated wheels? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Hattons Dave Posted November 30, 2017 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted November 30, 2017 Hi all, Quite a few people seem to have found the "Classic Traction" formation list to be quite interesting and useful so I've put together a version showing some more "Modern Traction". This isn't a complete list but should give a good idea of what you're likely to see around the network during leaf fall season. Cheers, Dave 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
