Yes the Power Cab starter set should handle it no problem and if you want you can always add on to the system with an SB3a which will give you 5amps. The only down side to the starter set is you only get 2 recalls but when you add the SB3a you get 6 I've also added the CAB06 which is a small second controller which gives you another 6 recalls and I now have 12 in total. I can't fault the system and as your layout grows and you budget gets bigger over time you can buy tons of add ons. When you get a refund for the Advance what would your budget be for a new system

Power Cab the only way to go

Here we go again the can of worms has now been opened ((( I would have to agree with Wrenn as after all he's friends with Paddy and has got his info from the horses mouth

You don't need the clips just solder to the clips already on the Athearn Motor. But don't forget to remove them from the motor first. As for wire any thin wire like what's in most locos will do. Try E bay

=))

Don't go opening that can of worms again

I think there is a HO model available of that

That's what Paddy was telling people at the Bangor show earlier this year that they were postponed indefinitely along with 209 and 230

Simply the best modelling I've seen that loco is just an absolutely stunning piece of work and puts the rest of us to shame. Its gets my vote for numero uno

Seamus is this all the 071's to be released or are there more after Jan/Feb

Seamus if I get time over the next day or two I will have a look for you.

There are pics on the net somewhere of 2 111's double heading a passenger train and also pics somewhere of 208 and 209 also working a passenger train heading over the river Lagan.

I'll second that Red Rich he even took the time to graffiti my name on the side of my shed

Fran would these locos have double triple headed etc with other locos of the same class

Seamus post up the photos for Baby GM of the conversion you did on the schools class it was also another good one you did

This was taken on my old layout L-R 385, Dunluce Castle, 186, and Bachmann Fairburn tank 186 and #4

I think they might be able to work in multiple in the North of Ireland there should be photos on line some where

I forgot about Dunluce Castle this is a Mainline 2P I bought for £15 on eBay repainted it I also went to Cultra with Hiddenagenda and photographed the real one and measured her up for the decals which were made for me by Railtec and are still available there. I even have the small manufactures plate on the front of the boiler

Dave they are from one of the books I have. If I get time later I will have a hunt for some more

Should be fun seeing that running round the layout next time your up bud. Did you go for the sound as well.
