Do you have a sound chip in the works?! Hi BosKonay Yes sound is in the works, but not worked on at the moment. I have designed around a Digitrax sound chip and all the current model being built have a modified under-frame boxing to take a 28mm dia speaker. I have set-up some sounds- horn, compressor, wheel sequel and electric motor speed up and down. Running sound I leaving to the model its self - it sounds great on its own! Will get back to it soon murrayec Quote

Horsetan Posted February 4, 2014 Posted February 4, 2014 I seem to recall someone did build a P4 BR "508" EMU with working sliding doors and warning lights, so I wonder if that might be a DCC option for the DART...... Quote
murrayec Posted February 10, 2014 Author Posted February 10, 2014 Hi All Just to let you know, I now have the new DART Logo Livery as an option;- also -you got to check out this web page, some classic DART shoe box modelling going on here;- http://homepage.tinet.ie/~cronews/bushmills/dart/braystation.htm murrayec Quote
Sentinel281 Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Well, looking back to when it all begun, the discussions about whether to have glazing or not, interior details or no interior... I'm really stunned about this great development. Congratulations, really really nice models. Cheers Gerhard. Quote
BosKonay Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Any more photos of this batch Eoin? Dare I even wish for a video? Quote
craven1508 Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 nice them dart units, good luck with it, Quote
murrayec Posted February 13, 2014 Author Posted February 13, 2014 Hi Thanks for all the great comments, I'm chuffed myself as to how they are turning out. Boskonay I'm sorry I do not have more images of the current build, 2 of the sets are now gone into service. I'm so much behind on completing them, the minute they are ready they are out to the owners. I wanted to do a video of the whole batch complete, which would have been great to see- an 8 coach windowed DART train! it would have been a first. But, sadly its not to be this time. I am finishing each order separately- I find its far easier on my head, and I devote end time on each order to get it right, running well and no mistakes. I will post images of the next 2 sets when the bodies are on- should be next week! I have discussed with the owners that we have to get them all back together at a show or the like, to get photos and video- all agree. In the next build I should have more time murrayec Quote
Broithe Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 I'm chuffed myself as to how they are turning out. And so you should be - it's almost ridiculous that such a good model of such an obscure prototype should be made available to us - and we've been privy to every stage of the development. Marvellous stuff. Quote
DartStation Posted February 13, 2014 Posted February 13, 2014 Have to agree - super model well done Eoin Paul R Quote
murrayec Posted February 21, 2014 Author Posted February 21, 2014 (edited) Hi This is for you BosKanoy, I remembered today that I took this video at a Liffey Valley Show last year. [video=youtube_share;DY7uCMEx600] A bit of Irish 'n' American! murrayec Edited February 21, 2014 by murrayec Quote
BosKonay Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 Gorgeous Eoin Can't wait until she rattles into Amiens! Quote
murrayec Posted February 21, 2014 Author Posted February 21, 2014 Hi BosKonay Her is the new jacket for Amiens! Test prints back from the printer yesterday, it looks pretty good. The chaps machine is running really well at the moment. I was not to sure of the new IR logo, but it looks great on the green background. Pity about the front logo, they should have kept the colour in it. Sadly destined to be cut out at a later date! murrayec Quote
heirflick Posted February 21, 2014 Posted February 21, 2014 that dart is growing on me like a bad rash- excelent! Quote
murrayec Posted February 25, 2014 Author Posted February 25, 2014 Hi All Can anyone direct me to a video that has the DART Air Horn Sound in it? We are working on the sounds for the Sound Option and any help would be appreciated. murrayec Quote
Garfield Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 (edited) If you want a decent recording of one, when I'm in Dublin next I can bring along an audio recorder I use for radio/film work, which will do the trick... Edited February 26, 2014 by Garfield Quote
murrayec Posted February 26, 2014 Author Posted February 26, 2014 Hi BosKonay Thanks for the vid link Hi garfieldsghost Thanks for the offer to record, much appreciated, at the moment we are working digitally with samples and hope to adjust the sample we have to suit the DART horn. I will keep you posted on our progress and may call on the offer in the future. I went out to record the horn about 3 times so far, each time I took a lot of video but not one Hoot!! Sounds we have; Horn - soon! Motor accelerating Motor de-accelerating Motor even running Wheel squeal Compressor/generator Thanks again guys murrayec Quote
jhb171achill Posted February 26, 2014 Posted February 26, 2014 I've said this before, but I have found it fascinating to follow the story of how these developed, and you shared the earliest and most experimental stages with the rest of us from the start. That, in itself, is unique. I hope the ongoing production line goes very well - certainly, from reading these posts it seems you have your hands full with current orders. That's obviously a very good sign. Congratulations. Quote
murrayec Posted February 27, 2014 Author Posted February 27, 2014 Hi jhb171achill Thanks for your comment and support Yes hands are full! sometimes production seems to be going backwards! murrayec Quote
murrayec Posted March 27, 2014 Author Posted March 27, 2014 Hi Here's one for yeah!! I was commissioned last week to make DART hats for the Darts tonight in the Point Depo..... They are truncated DARTs, they are quite cute at this size. The full model would have had a serious overhang and probably take someone's eye out! murrayec Quote
