47606odin Posted February 6, 2019 Author Share Posted February 6, 2019 (edited) well, I am still here things have been trying over the last couple of weeks. vehicle issues which has seen me shell out over $1000 and lying on the floor at 9pm trying to stop a petrol tank leaking was not fun because it had rotted from the inside, and lots of time at work, but now one of our contracts has finished, there will be more time to do some modelling. Conversely however, this also means less money to do said modelling. At least i have some stuff to be getting on with that will not cost too much...so here is my latest video i have finally been able to cobble together Edited February 6, 2019 by 47606odin 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I knew the ECoS did more than 'drive' the trains but could not work our from the manual exactly what! Thanks also your description of wiring Cobalt IP motor points and how easy there are to programme through the Command Station this has convinced me that's the way forward for my point operation. Many thanks great videos. Keep up the good work. Layout looking great too. Regards Dave 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

47606odin Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 Having seen over the last few days, the new O gauge 33 from Heljan with improved details (not quite as good as my 33050) I honestly think the loco allocation for HG is going to blossom, and I won't have to do half as much to them to bring them up to standard. All I can hope now, as they have them in OO, that they upscale their 33/2 models Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as its well out of my area I have considered if a 33/2 could be done off the 33/0, it would take quite a bit or work but I know many moons ago they've been done in 4mm off the Lima models. A bagpipe would also be nice! Al. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
