  1. It will either be a loksound 5 or a zimo chip. It wont be a loksound select as they havent been available for a while
  2. If anyones still after the blue coaches @ £16 each i spotted 5 in the window at Trident trains today
  3. Picked a green sound fitted 121 up from trident trains today and the sound is really good. Its a zimo decoder also. 28 functions but the instructions dont say whose sound file is used. The supplied speaker sounds pretty good and the volume is fine. Im hard of hearing and i can hear it perfectly well.
  4. Has anyone got a video of the factory fitted sound 121 models? Looked on youtube but cant see anything
  5. Cheers ive already got the blue / grey fitted with a Bachmann decoder. I want a sound one now there out and my local shops offered to allow me to trade in my existing model, or split the sound chip out of one of the models. So ill see whats cheaper.
  6. Does the Dapol pannier run ok thru these points?
  7. Can anyone conform these will run ok over set track pointwork?
  8. Seems pointless retooling it if there not making it dcc ready.
  9. Might be worth contacting hattons and asking for an exhange
  10. Surely the shop shouldnt be open to customers? Good that he was caught tho
  11. Sams Trains says in his news program tonight that Simon from Hornby got in touch with him following his review of the A2/2. He has had his model replaced by a better example
  12. My NCB one arrived today. Cant bilieve how small it it - makes the 08 look huge To answer my own questions a few pages back : It runs fine thru my insulfrog pointwork, including double slips. Decoder fitting was easy with a guagemaster DCC93 decoder. Body came off fairly easily. Putting it back on was a little more challenging as theres some black detail parts that just prevent the body going back in. Was fine one theres were flexed out out of the way.
  13. My Blue/Grey 121 arrived today from TMC along with the Bachmann decoder. When the postman handed me the box i thought it was empty it was really light. Unplacked it and fitted the chip. Body removal was fairly easy. Runs great despite it being a bit of a lightwieght. Much lighter than my Dapol version
  14. Or maybe spend it on your fuel bill as intended?
  15. Have the NCB versions been and gone or am i still in time to order one?
  16. It was a post shared to model railway trading group on Facebook
  17. I swear earlier on i saw an ad for a Hornby Only fools and horses vent van in british rail yellow. Looking to preorder it and its like its vanished. Was i dreaming lol
  18. I agree, the brief clip they played actully sounded pretty similar to TTS. I know its not but its deffo no the W/G soundfile
  19. The current railfrieght and the one from the whiskies set both use a loksound 5
  20. Final update from me the controller arrived back. Works perfect. Thanks gaugemaster
  21. Im hoping for sound fitted versions of the Class 20/3 and 24/1
  22. Very tempted to pick one up at the sale price but can anyone confirm how well it runs over SL-90 double slips and insulfrogs in general?
