+ 1 :thumbs: Proper railway noises!! It barely needs DCC sound, does it?
I think it would be good to hear the spluttering of the Sulzer prime mover in the 47, rather than the squeak it seems to be making.

That Squeak I will have you know is a refined turbo charger being strangled, not really its 2 ABC gear sets

What struck me about the video was just how poor the Bachmann 24 looked, even in passing.
How on earth did that get past "quality control" when being made?

Shame the squeak did come from one of the 25s!
(Think about it.)

Parkside, Skytrex and at least 1 is Peco and for information I have a 31,35 and a 55 Heljans. I had almost all of the freight stock on the line on 1 train and it was heavy the fins on the heat sink at the back of the Helmsman were very hot.

Most of the vans i built Ian are Slaters.:rolleyes:

Well with all the talk about running garden lines, as mine is out of commission at the moment I took the opportunity to pose some shots, can't wait to run them properly
