RMweb Premium GWRPhil Posted May 13, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 13, 2013 Evening, Didn't go to Swanage in the end, a family issue had to take priority. However on a positive note I have just secured a new delivery to the Redbrook fleet. I know I shouldn't but sometimes you've just got to do it. You never know whats around the corner. More details to follow... obviously with a picture once the postie has been. Just need to source some suitable rolling stock now... Cheers Scott Congratulations on purchase scott. I'm fairly certain i know what they are and well done. i must admit if i'm right i'm very jealous phil Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pitbull1845 Posted May 14, 2013 Author Share Posted May 14, 2013 Yeah I'm aware of that too, but I can afford that from my piggy bank. Now if only I knew someone who's a dab hand at fitting led's in everything. (Kevin ) Cheers Scott Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitbull1845 Posted May 14, 2013 Author Share Posted May 14, 2013 Well Royal Mail have yet again kept to their side of the deal and the 20's have arrived safely at Redbrook. First impression sof them are good. I have just got back in from the local model shop, having collected 2 chips for the girls. I'm not going to have time to fit them this afternoon so might be a job for tonight. I may try and get a picture of them on the layout beforehand, but its currently pi##ing it down here so won't be going out to the garage just yet.

pitbull1845 Posted May 14, 2013 Author Share Posted May 14, 2013 Evening, The 20's have been chipped (non sound at the moment) and have had a bit of a run round on the layout. They seem to work well as a pair with no pushing/pulling. They are currently taking on fuel at the depot but I managed to get a picture of them earlier whilst they were stabled in the mail siding. Thanks for the picture Phil of the weatehred stock. I'm still researching the correct stock for 1996, need to get some TTA's for the water too.

Timtrains66 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Very nice I think Kernow are doing a 2 pack of modified coaches in Hunslet-Barclay livery, but at 60 pounds Tim Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitbull1845 Posted May 14, 2013 Author Share Posted May 14, 2013 Cheers Mick, Flickr was my next port of call. I'm glad I dont need those vans. They look like too much hard work. Tim, I've already ordered a set of the coaches from Kernow, dont think I'll be ordering another lot though. But never say never. I really should be spending the cash on points for the FY. But wheres the fun in that! Cheers Scott Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pitbull1845 Posted May 15, 2013 Author Share Posted May 15, 2013 no need to apologise Tim. It was only luck that i looked at the kernow site. I could've missed them so thanks for mentioning it. Don't think they're due for a while yet though. so they may see use on normal workings in the area! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Kevin ) Cheers Scott Hello mate, I will have a look at your 20's, I am sure something can be done, I am sure that there can be light at the end of the tunnel, may even be with 20/20 vision . Kevin.

P.C.M Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I like the Killer 20s Scott, Used to go out for them when they used to come down our way, I think I posted a pic on RMweb somewhere of the train at Hamworthy, early 90s though so a bit before your time period. Love the video too I do really like that tank train. Cheers Peter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pitbull1845 Posted May 15, 2013 Author Share Posted May 15, 2013 Evening, Thanks Kevin, I appreciate your offer. theres no rush for it, I suppose I should get the sound first and go from there. Glad you like the movie clip David, GBRf and Peter. I've had them running round again tonight, this time with a rake of BDA's. Just for trial purposes of course... Hi Peter, I still have to get 3 more TEA's to complete the rake. I was thinking of getting one of the murco liveried ones to act as a fresh out the works look, with minimal spillage. I've got a couple pictures of the 20's at Exeter, but I think they are from the early 90's too. No modelling now, its almost time for the Apprentice.

Poindexter Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Hi Scott. I knew you would succumb to some Killer 20's If they came up at the right price. I think it's an excellent livery. If you ever decide to have a go at fitting lights n sound I have some pics of the stages somewhere of when I did mine (only done one so far) I would defo buy a Zimo chip with Paul Chetter sounds as it is really straightforward to program the functions for lights.
