0 BosKonay Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Havent tried the proses one, but have the hornby one and find it great. Very useful bit of kit for testing / working / dcc fitting / messing about / running in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 aramand Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 I have the Hornby one also and find it pretty good (apart from an issue last night with a bad connection!) BTW that Black 5 looks fantastic - did you add the lights/smoke yourself ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 irishthump Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 To hell with a rolling road! Use the need for a test track as an excuse to build a seperate track! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Here is my Black5 having a spin Stephen how did you set the DCC up to give you wheel spin. I love the lights and smoke did you fit them yourself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 burnthebox Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 Thanks guys, well i was leaning towards the Proses ( M.R. had only rated the Hornby at 6/10, DC Concepts at 9/10 ) as it has abilities to clean tracks, maybe they all do, it seemed to be a compact system, everything in it's place, not pieces on tracks, now it's not available as there's a new one out soon !

0 BosKonay Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 The steamers are done by a mate of mine, Martin, down under. I've the black 5, a 9F and a a4 from him with the 'full treatment' of smoke gens, lights, extra weight, etc. Real lookers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
