  1. I think the phrase 'chalk and cheese' would be an apt description of the difference. The Lima sports a classic noisy pancake on one bogie with iirc two axles driven. Iirc there are pickups on four wheels? The new model sports A 5 Pole Double Flywheel Motor Driving 4 Axles with All Wheel Pick Up While not as good a puller as the 071 the new 201 is an entirely smoother beast than its Lima relative.
  2. Jaw. On. The. Floor.
  3. Oh wow!! They look brand new!!
  4. Wow! Looking absolutely bang on! Really feels like the prototype already!! Can't wait to see the sea!
  5. Unbelievably good!!!
  6. Wow and wow again! How much better, prototypical and imposing does that 071 look!!
  7. Nice one hard to admit that sometimes rtfm works!
  8. Ohh, any pics?
  9. Try a new length of track and even just clip wires right from the prog output to it?
  10. The chip should only go on one way around. Assume it's physically on ok how are you testing it?
  11. Can not wait to see the master progressing this one!!
  12. What a stunner!
  13. What a beauty!!
  14. I'm a fan of gauge master medium grey. Afaics it's noch rebrand and to my eye is a good 'Irish' representation.
  15. Touchcab works directly with the controllers (talks to the Ecos, Lenz etc directly over wifi)
  16. There are a few dcc throttles that mimic prototypes but it's hard to beat the simplicity of driving a loco with your phone
  17. Check out http://wwwjoe-daddy.blogspot.ie/2014/03/dcc-touch-cab-alternative-for-droid.html?m=1
  18. Touchcab http://www.touchcab.com Works great as a handheld throttle and the ecos is fully supported.
  19. Got mine this morning, a lovely quality bit of kit - makes the Xuron look like a cheap lidl effort!
  20. They do appear on ebay from time to time. I presume the shops are cleared out?
  21. The loksound should let you enter a value from zero to 31 for CV 278/CV 286 for Aux 1 and Aux 2 brightness
  22. Snap Hymek Please stick the list up, many here dabble in the UK steamer arena
  23. Honestly, if they are boxed especially, I would sell them / keep them for nostalgia reasons. For now, the best options are Silverfox models
