Is that why some You Tube videos appear to sow the train jerking along rather than running smoothly Hornby Magazine videos used to be like that Paul R 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baggies1961 Posted September 14, 2021 Author Share Posted September 14, 2021 I think fingers crossed I may have sorted my electrical issue, swapped leads on the NCE controller seems to have stopped it, hopefully. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Dapol announce one it will be 5 years at least to the shelves! However it would be a good choice for an O gauge model. Several liveries to offer but I doubt they would make any money on Mk5 coaches. Paul R 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, surely Dapol can upscale their oo version as by all accounts it is a superb model. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baggies1961 Posted October 6, 2021 Author Share Posted October 6, 2021 Good point but I think the tide has turned for O gauge as it is becoming more readily available as modellers realise you dont necessarily need acres of room for a layout. I personally would buy one maybe two as I like them, the same will be for the Dapol 66. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully all is well…. All is well with the layout, I’m part way through the peak, but people want videos weathering it, and at the minute I can’t be bothered with videos as they do hinder and slow down progress. However, I’m having a week away at the minute and got6 weeks holiday, so hopefully life can take a back step for a few days and I can finish the 45, and do a bit more on the shed, quite possibly without the videos unless I’m doing something specific Edited October 7, 2021 by 47606odin 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
