    Now, that's what I'm talking about! Beautiful detail, Richie! Is this Weshty's? with detail added? What chassis is she on? Thanks

    Iarnrod's pics show 079 in her original livery and latterly in her super train livery as 079S, but in the last picture Original livery as delivered to CIE prior to being repaint into ST proper but with with 079S on the front (CAWS fitted) and then 079SA on the side with SA in somewhat smaller lettering indicating some sort of ad hoc remembering as the air brakes were commissioned, (one presumes). Anyway no question that she was not 079SA by the time she was repainted into ST livery

    I'm sold! Looking forward to it

    Great job, Noel! Nice picture, Dave! I was looking to confirm that 079 had the SA suffix in Supertrain as I recently renumbered my 086 based on an assumption without any confirmatory photographic evidence. Like Wrenneire's photo, some of the 141/181 class locomotives had an "S" suffix only.

    What era does it cover, JB? Well done!

    Would anyone happen to have or know where I can a photo? Thanks in advance

    Yup, nice wagons, would certainly buy some and hopefully some 'extra' generators from the twin packs

    Still looking for a few of these babies, especially the AE-06s

    It's a little expensive, Jim. It's about US$400 more than I want to spend on it right now. Sure, I can have a couple of Murphy's models for that Better have them throw in a tank of petrol for good luck

    The group has had trouble with its Chinese suppliers for many years after moving production from the UK in the late 90s. After extricating itself from a long-running contract, it had further problems this year The potential cost savings from moving it business to Chinese suppliers seem to have been more problematic in the end. wonder if it was a quality issue like MM or just getting to deliver product on time given the recent economic boom and inflation in China

    No longer available, so presumably sold

    Forum rules state you must state a selling price. This is been decided by the moderators for transparency and to prevent sellers with a problematic history elsewhere abusing the site. I realize you're new to the forum. The forum rules are clearly posted for new members.
  15. DiveController
    No problem. Since you're new to this and you wanted to price your items to sell, you could ask around to see what would be a good price point to sell at. Just trying to help out so you don't end up like this guy on eBay who has been gradually reducing the price of a similar set as it has not sold http://m.ebay.ie/itm/BACHMANN-00651-IRISH-RAILWAY-CIE-2-6-0-CLASS-K1-LOCO-COACH-TRAIN-SET-/321940918326?nav=SEARCH You're free to name whatever price you wish however.
  16. DiveController
    It's not clear if you have stated a sale price for this item. Forum rules require a selling price when placing an ad

    Thank you both for replying in such a timely fashion! Was considering something but may hold off for now until I figure this out better. Had listened to a couple of locos but some didn't sound quite right and now I understand why Are these the modern ones I shjould be trying to look for?

    I have been looking into the Bachmann Class 20 with sound and there seems to be more than one sound chip available. It seems that Bachmann did their own chip which came installed (or at least included with)the Class 20. Howes models also seem to have done their own chip or can reblow one with their sound file. Some reports suggest that this is a better sound except the horns (if it's for a Hunslet). Does anyone British outline modeller on here have experience with the Class 20 sound? Does anyone know what SWD sound refers to? Opinions appreciated. Thanks in advance
  19. DiveController
    Don;t get me wrong, JB, I loved the orange ones best before I saw that shot which is really nice. While I understand the practicalities, I guess I don't fancy them as much in 'cement' livery
  20. DiveController
    That's a smashing livery. Wasn't into the bubbles so much but would definitely buy a rake of these in rtr:drool:

    The Q&A section is best in case anyone didn't read all the way down=)) Doesn't accept returns ………. should I go for it? The river Wye skirts the English-Welsh border, this one's further north;)

    What are you planning to convert to DCC? If you have older locos that do not run very well at present on DC, you may see a marginal or no improvement on DCC. Consider looking through some of the threads on the DCC section here to see what may be relevant to your situation

    That's exactly what I needed!:tumbsup:

    Looks like no recommendation for the Hornby 20 yet. If anyone is aware that this is a new build like the and not the Lima rehash, would you please post on this thread? Thanks in advance David, what sound chip are you using for the Hunslet and how did you program the horn? If I look for a secondhand Bachmann Class 20, are there different variations out there? Presumably I would be looking for a recent build. Any advice appreciated
