Very nice looking push pull set, really looks the part behind the 121,

Can't wait to see the directional lights fitted, maybe you will post

Some pics of your progress thanks for the videos.

 

John

I am thinking of a sound decoder

Featuring the EGV sound in the driving

trailer.

I may find a different way of

uploading photos,as since I changed

phone a number of months ago,I can't

upload photos.

My next project is to put in Directional lighting in the the Driving trailer of the MK 3 pp Pack I bought at the Raheny show. Here is some video of the set on Gerrys Ballybeg.

 

Very enjoyable video EM. Both of those mk3 sets look really well. Was that the SF RTR pack you bought? As ever videos of that wonderful layout are always a treat. Noel

Yes Noel,I was after the triple SF

pack this ages,and bought this at

the Raheny show last weekend.

I often got the 10.30 ex Connolly

on a Sunday morning in the 90s with

a single 121 struggling with 6 coaches

to Rosslare.

It looks excellent. I can only imagine the sound of a 121 powered mk3 set threading its way through the scenic hills and valleys around Rathdrum and Arklow. 6 coaches must have been near its limit on such a hilly run. How long did it take back then to get to Rosslare?

After many months of trying to post photos,I have

managed to upload a few.

I am currently at my Mk3 PP driving trailer,which

I plan to install a mk3 EGV decoder and directional lighting.

I have made some cab detail and drivers desk,along with some

plasticard sections.

I also have a Bachmann EM80 that is in the process of a conversion to

IR EM50.

Something I have often thought about Eamonn but never got round to it. Well done, looking forward to seeing the result and also EM 50.

 

Just have to order some LEDs,Kieran and

do some work on the seating area of the

Driving trailer.As I am going to use 201-

203 as the dedicated loco,I note that the

201s did carry wing mirrors,which come with the parts bag of the MM 201s.
