    Bowser C630m's are lovely Locos but some suffer from noisy mechanisms but still run smooth.
  2. NIRCLASS80
    Please post pics of the SPc630 when it arrives.

    Yes the sound Version and it runs sweet! This was Genesis last chance with me as I have had some dogs, especially the F45 which had really dodgy pick up but eventually got it cured.

    Trees and Telegraph poles are a must for my era.

    Well some work has at last got done to the previously listed neglected corner.

    The GS4 in the video is class looking, personally I think every bit as nice as the U-2-g

    The price is away out of my league too but a certain retailer in Toronto was selling these at one third retail price when I was visiting in 2011 and then the same retailer vanished with thousands of dollars of deposits!! I was one of the lucky ones.

    There is a smoke generator in it but that is only a piece of cotton wool! I'll have to try and get pics and a video later.

    Just a couple of shots of the Trueline Trains U-2-g on the layout.

    Was in Coleraine today and Bills hobbies have 20% off all in stock Hornby and he has a good selection of stock which his web site does not show. I am no connection to the owner and only use it for some scenic materials but the prices with that amount off rrp takes them close to the box shifters. http://www.billshobbiesmodelshop.com/index.html

    A couple of pictures of a corner of my layout that has been waiting scenery for 3 years, hopefully by posting these this will get me started. http://www.flickr.com/photos/nirailfan/?saved=1

    Here is a great supplier and a great airbrush for the money. http://www.smdesigns.co.uk/iwataneo?pmc_a=show&pmc_id=624 Also some great lesson videos, although this guy takes airbrushing to a whole new level. No connection just a happy customer.

    Thanks for your comment Tony and just to be clear the red and white marker lights can be controlled individually which is a far more important feature than cab lights.
  22. NIRCLASS80
    Just for some information, I tried the Bachmann chip 36-557 in my 112 model and all the function apart from the cab lights work and at £15.73 from Hattons gets the loco going on the cheap but still gives good running qualities and all the Head and marker light options without costing a fortune.

    Here is one for the track although it uses the dapol solution rather than IPA but same technique

    Don't use meths. Get some IPA with at least 90% alcohol content and simply apply to a piece of fine cloth or piece of kitchen roll and just rub along the rail and you will be amazed at the dirt that comes off. Try to avoid abrasive solutions as you only create more scratches to catch more dirt. IPA is available from local chemists or ebay works out the cheapest option. Alittle goes along way. Great for cleaning loco wheels as well.
