RMweb Gold Alister_G Posted January 21, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 21, 2017 20064 is chipped with a Coastal DCC sound chip, 20030 has a standard ESU V4 chip, the only issue I've got so far is they are fighting each other when running as a pair. I've looked at the CV's with JMRI but they both match...... Hi Simon, I was reading a thread in the DCC sound forum the other day which suggests that consisting a Loksound chip and other chips can be a problem, particularly if you have an NCE controller, as the Loksound chip requires different values in the momentum CVs compared to other chips.

It should have the same values, the only difference should be that the start up on each loco will differ Edited January 21, 2017 by bescotbeast 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bescotbeast Posted January 22, 2017 Author Share Posted January 22, 2017 New LED lights, kindly provided by Andy " vulcan product fan" of New Whitt, have been fitted into the TOPS office and shunters cabin, there is some light bleed but nothing that some fresh paint on the interior can't fix.

Have you took a sound chip out ? to put a costal dcc sound one in or was it just a drive chip ? I bought two chips from Coastal but only one was a sound chip, I was having to watch the pennies so couldn't afford two at the time. 9 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wombatofludham Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 (edited) Cock Marling is actually a tiny little hamlet in East Sussex, just in case you wondered.Probably the smallest Cock in the area. Of course, you shouldn't drive at all if you've had a large Cock. Don't drink and drive. The roads are shocking and you'll spill it.

P.C.M Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 LOL thats the best video yet, and the trains weren't to bad either. One thing I did notice is you have a couple of Stanier parcel vans which I am pretty sure had been withdrawn by the late 80s. Otherwise looking forwards to the next load of Adds oh and some trains too. Cheers Peter. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm slowly expanding the fleet when I can stop buying locos. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though it is hard not to buy loco's, that Green pair of 20s look hellfire. Cheers Peter. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd read your comments regarding Lima GUVs over on Llanbourne but I've not got the time or inclination to start messing with flush glazing etc, I'll keep an eye on Hattons or ebay for some more Bachmann GUVs. The Tinsley 20's are great I just need to sort out the running as a pair issue, which I'm hoping a matching sound chip will fix. I bought another Class 37 on ebay last night which I'm hoping to respray into 37350/D6700, counting up my fleet including last nights purchase I've now got 26 locos. By the end of this week that figure could increase by two more Simon 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Marcus Morning Marcus, glad you liked the video, it's a bit shorter than I wanted owing to some of the footage I recorded was too grainy to work with. More to follow when I've got some time of work allowing me more time to run and set the trains up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
