When your talking about odd liveries, Was there not a starlight express stock which used to run between Glasgow and Euston, Not sure besides the blue interior lights what difference it had??

Hi Pete,
While you have got your 47's in bits is it not worth fitting some sound chips in ready for your move to DCC???
(best go and find a tin hat me thinks! )
Hi Taybridge,
Can I put an order in for 6 sealink MK1's they look awesome!!!! What sort of spray gun do you use???
I would love a rake of them for the Glasgow- Blackpool special.

I think it was Peter himself, Saying that if he can't match the speed he may need to go down the DCC line.
I think it is a very sensable discussion. The only thing is there can only be one answer.
Think the easter bunny needs to bring you a DCC set Peter.

Depends what you call Cheap, Seen some full sets for $199 on ebay for the multimaus set!!!!
Need to get it on your birthday list Pete.
If you want to try it, I could loan you a Lenz set would just need a transformer.

What about a large logo 56 with sound on the test train from Crewe????
I have a few locos but not sure what to put sound in next.
Any suggestions SRMAN? 25,26,37,40,47,86 or a class 150?

HI Peter,
Might sound cheeper, But if you excuse the pun does not Sound as nice as a 33 and 37 thrashing its was out of LLanbourne with full sound!!!!
Need to look on Ebay Australia to find a cheap unit to get you started.

Looked like a great day, Hope to catch up sometime, I had a play with my layout yesterday and gave a few of my new engines a run, Still undecided if I should take my layout to the show in Launceston.

Hi all,
My model of 47406 arrived in quick time from Guagemster, The cost was good as they knocked the Vat of resulting in the engine costing less than if I was in the UK with postage included.
It's a superb model, I have put a chip in it but going to upgrade to sound chip at first available chance.
Need to get some work done on the layout now.

HI,
Just had confirmation that my 47406 is on its way to Australia, Hope it doesn't get to many signal checks en-route!!!! Just need to save up now for a sound chip, Got a 21 pin chip ready to go, to at least get some use out of it til the sound chip arrives.

This looks like an awesome model, But the delivery charge to Australia will stop me buying it, 30gbp, Most local from the box shifters are under 10 gbp to post to Australia,

The reason he has lost his memory is probably the heat!!!!! Its been lovely down here in Tassie hope all you lovely people on the North Island are ok!!!!!!

Hi,
Where did you see the picture of the pre-production sample, Would love to see a pic of it. Looks like Bachmann Class 47's could be over-running my layout.
