@@lonelysignalbox I certainly can, give me some time as I'm so busy with life etc but I can do that....👍👍

@@mrmartinb1615 that’s great cause I can’t find a good video about them. Ik revolution is doing another run which should be out soon and the ermewa is def a livery I’d like to get.

@@lonelysignalbox Thinking about it and you mentioning Revolution Trains, I take it your referring to the silver JNA's and not the Dapol Network Rail cut down JNA's? I have ordered 8 Revolution Trains JNA's 4 in Touax and 4 MRL's go go in my jumbo train. lol

⁠@@mrmartinb1615yeah def those ones The ones in ermewa tarmac livery. I’m waiting for mine on pre order from revolution trains

@@stephendavies6949 Wow, very nice, not quite the hills of Wales. Lol. Ya it really is a gorgeous colour for the loco, just stunning. Glad you love it. Thankyou, glad you enjoyed it. 👍👍

@@richardbraham2486 You'll love it. ❤

@@Railwayrob Thankyou so much, hope your keeping well? 🤣🤣🤣🤣ya you know, just can't help me self. Lol. It really is a big selling point for me the sound, make the Bachmann model sound almost boring. Lol. Thanks again. 👍👍

@@darrelldeltic807 Thankyou so much. 👍👍

@@StormmyStormmy Thankyou so much. Ya it really looks incredible. I did hear that about introducing a working fan but never knew when they were coming in. Not going to lie I did think of you when I started using the JJA wagons and that would be amazing if the could make an up dated version. 🤣🤣🤣 very true about the pricing, but to be fair they have a good set up with 'more you buy the more you save' option. Ya yhe second hand prices of these wagons are absolutely crazy, but I'm guessing you want one then you 'have to' pay the price.....I'd rather not pay that. Lol. Your more than welcome and thankyou for your comment. 👍👍

@@mrmartinb1615 Hi, those JJA wagons are superb in my opinion, I know they’re expensive but if you wait you will get some for a reasonable price, I’ve been lucky in my pursuit of my rake a didn’t get my pants pulled down by greedy sellers, I have 8 Rail Track curved top units a one exclusive model also curved top in my collection, it’s a shame that Bachmann are the only Uk manufacturer that produces them, their last versions of them are weathered and very expensive, 2 things I’m not a fan of in this unique hobby, maybe Accurascale might look into producing them as a pack in the future, probably cost £250 for 1x generator unit and 4 non generator units in various liveries would cause a meltdown where they would sell out in hours for a genuine rake of must have wagons, they still haven’t made my year by producing the Rail Head Treatment Train wagons even though they can get the moulds from Hatton’s, I would personally buy 2x sets of them if they decided to produce them, let’s hope they do the right thing in the future.

@@StormmyStormmy Ya they really are superb model, ya the only trouble is trying to fund the cheap ones. Lol. Bet your little collection looks amazing? I think give it time and the big companies will go down the road of building the JJA's, I bet they will look incredible......possibly with lights? 🤷‍♂️... The advantage of Accurascale is the more you buy the more you save, I really do like the ICI wagon they are making. The rail head treatment train would be amazing if they made it. Ya, time will tell. 👍👍

@@mrmartinb1615 Accurascale have made some superb items over the years at prices that make the competition stand up and take note, those JJA wagons are no harder to produce than the 4 coach and 1 x dvt set they produced a couple of years ago, that pack had complex lighting in all the units and it sold for £269 which was seriously amazing, Accurascale’s attention to detail is superb! The JJA’s wouldn’t command that kind of complexity so I don’t believe we modellers would get our pants pulled down like Bachmann try to do on a regular basis even if their products are quite bulletproof, Dapol’s MRA wagons are on my to buy list but they claim they can’t produce them for a price all modellers would be tempted to buy, secondhand prices of those MRA wagons are £225 plus for a set of 5, if they did a rerun of them brand new for let’s say £189 they would sell very well even though the couplings were very fragile and poor, technology has come a long way since those wagons were released over 12 plus years ago, even smaller runs would definitely be a very popular choice like Accurascale do with their runs, their RTC coaches were a classic example of popularity when they sold out all 400 sets in a few hours, those coaches are the best RTC coaches on the market full stop! I don’t believe Accurascale will ever produce them again so for those luck modellers who got them I say fair play, I would like a set but I refuse to pay an extra £80 plus for the privilege and never will regardless of them being in my collection, not all new announcements float my boat but they do other modellers so I guess it’s a blessing for them.

@@StormmyStormmy Very well said, they have come a long way, specially in quality and my hat does come off for creating the 'more you buy the more you safe' That is perfection and ALL manufactures should most definitely take note of that. Now I wonder if they took the job on in recreating the JJA's would they put working lights on them by the doors? That would be awesome if they made a rerun of the MRA wagons, mind you £225 don't sound bad, if they could produce them at that price as that makes them only £45 each......But I would think a pack of five would be a lot, lot more than that. Ya the couple between the wagons......a little different to say the leased. Wow 12 plus years ago. Well you never know, they might do a rerun of the RTC coaches. I would like them to do a little rerun of the PTA wagons as I need one inner set of the British Steel wagons. That is true, not every new release interest people, but that's not bad thing. lol 👍👍

@@going2thedogs Perfect, thankyou. 👍👍

@@Simon-Davis I thinks it's the only way to get them if you don't want to spend big bucks in one hit. The trouble is things sell out fast these days. Lol. Ya I did find that with the couplers but as I'm wanting to chain link them up I'm not too worried about them and I must admit I didn't find that the brake shoes interfered with anything and they all ran really well. 👍 Hahaha, ya the weathered one was actually boxed as a non weathered one...oh well, ya your right it looks stunning, just the rest of the rake to go🤣🤣. I bet your rake of wagons look stunning, just takes time to build up the collection. 👍

@@bedfordlab And to you to. Hope you enjoyed the show? 👍👍

@@michaelhannam9659 Ya you know, it looks stunning and in front of the wagons......Perfection..Thankyou. 👍

@@S27DRJ It's a lovely controller to use, the only issue is when you want to use the horn it's a little bit of a faf. Function, 3 then Enter, and the same again to stop it. 👍Thankyou, glad you enjoyed it. 👍

@@kristianlack9195Tell you the truth but I haven't actually run my HOA's with my JHA's but I bet it looks incredible, ya you and me both, I can't wait. Due to the length of train and weight I'll try to get my layout built first cos it'll be safer to run on a wider corner. 👍👍

@@Railwayrob Ya some boxes are beautiful in there own right. Lol. Thankyou bud and your more than welcome..........oh you ain't going to like the next unboxing very much..🤣🤣...all I'm going to say is full length 1970s coal train. 😉. 👍👍

@@daveharland9126 Thankyou. Ya I found that out after I recorded it...🤦‍♂️...lol...Cheers. 👍

@@mrindependent6382 Ya really are. Yes, I have a few container wagons, I have the first Bachmann container wagons they did about 17 years ago, a couple of Realtrack wagons with the micro wheels on them and the rest Dapol, comprising of many spine freightliner wagons, well wagons and the other blue megafret wagons. I have so many mainly down to the fact that a got most of them when they were "cheap" and I can run full length trains. 👍

@@nickshobbiesinterests6025 😉😉..Honestly they are stunning, You should, buy one pack this month, and so on.....you know you want to. Lol. 👍

@@darrelldeltic807 Thankyou so much, ya they really are beautiful to look at. 👍

@@breintonjunction791 Hi Al 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣...ya I thought I'd give a coal fired machine a chance 🤣. Oh no, to be fair I think Rails Of Sheffield have B C and D pack in stock as I write this message back. Good luck in the hunter. It'll be worth it. 👍

@@tonyrobinson362 🤣🤣🤣 Only trouble is when I do about three or four intros to different videos n one morning I get a little biscuited out. Lol..👍

@@bruceknights8330 It really was stunning to look at and the attention to detail was incredible. 👍

@@hovermotion 🤣..Ya looks even better I real life. 👍👍

@@Railwayrob Thank bud, ya looks stunning, now if I remember correctly most of those wagons in the Boeing train are 3D print, most of them by the guy "Barry" who was helping to run the layout for the two days. 👍👍

@@thebritishrailroader 🤣🤣🤣. Your footage is still amazing Steve, Elbow Lane is just incredible to look at. Thankyou bud. 👍👍

@@hovermotion Thankyou so much Jim. I do like the flat bed steel wagons from Cavalex as well. Mmmm. Lol. 👍

@@StormmyStormmy Thank you so much. I do have a non sound Accurascale Class 66 and I wasn't too sure what to go for, I'll find out closer to the time of fitting one what is out there. I would like "If possible" to have number 2 as brake where the rest of the functions wouldn't be too worries about. Thank you for the info in the speakers, interesting to know as I don't have a clue. Ya to be fair I was a little surprised that the dash didn't light up, probably cos it meant having to change too much in the cab (maybe) It'll be very interesting if or when Bachmann " re-engineer" their class 66. Seeing Seeing thier latest releases it'll be amazing. Your more than welcome. Thanks again. 👍👍

@@TheMichaelWilcock2016Railways Wow, three 37s, I bet that was noisy as anything. Unfortunately I'll never see neither of them. Thankyou for the info. 👍👍

I'm just happy I kept all my old tapes too.

@@TheMichaelWilcock2016Railways Hi Michael, the penny has just dropped for me and I've just realised the videos you put out.

@@IainDavies-z2l Thank you, and now I know. To be fair it is a force of habit that I have in calling them that. Cheers for the correction. 👍👍

Yes, I worked on the railway for 43 years and were always classed as "Tank Wagons" Tankers are on the sea or in the road.

@@IainDavies-z2l Thank you. 👍👍 wow, 43 years, you must of see some sights. 👍

Yes, I was glad to get retired. The railway now is not the railway I started on and didn't want to work on anymore.

@@IainDavies-z2l Fair enough....not changing for the better.....shame. 👍👍

Thank you. I couldn't remember if they were 3250 HP or 3200 HP. Cheers. 👍

@@mrmartinb1615 sorry mate, I was in a funny mood! I thought it was going to be a pair of 56s in the vid 🤓

@@mattwilson6552 🤣🤣. No worries bud. 🤣...56s would of been nice. Lol. 👍

@@garyevans5335 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍. Its crazy to see it in motion. 👍

@@williamdavies3295 So we stayed in the village/small town of Burry Port South Wales, and the station was literally a 2 minute walk from where we were staying. I would of absolutely loved a class 60 pulling g 29+. I've never seen a class 60 up close, only through trees from the Kennet and Avon Canal on the oil trains that run through on that line. Don't they match the class 59 for pulling power? Ya it really was a magnificent sight with not one but two class 66s hard (ish) at work. Lol...🤣🤣🤣I think they have grown on me. Lol. 👍

@@Olivia-kz5dp Thank you so much. I'm storage box building at the moment for most of the large freight trains I have, so that's first and then I'll starting putting some real time into the layout.👍👍

@@ianconder1626 Ya I now have 30 TEA Tankers, 25 Revolution Trains and 5 Caval. 👍

@@davidpeplow8780 Ya, your 100% correct, not sure how, why it ended up on that shot. That was the code for every morning loaded train I saw coming from under the road bridge from the Oil refinery. I think the emty train at 3.00 was the 18:58 6B33 from Theale Puma to Robeston Sdgs, so my bad. Thankyou for the correction. 👍👍.

@@BJHolloway1 I did consider it, I only didn't because the code were usually the same three train codes. 6B13, 6B33 and sometimes light engine moves around the mid evening. I think 0B.....something. thankyou for that I'll try to remember for next time. 👍👍

@@anthonywarrener1881 Thankyou, ya the weather was stunning, nothing to complain about. Lol. 👍

@@moelSiabod14334 Wow that is crazy to think that. What is the true capability of what the class 60 can pull? Mmmm. It's just so impressive to see. Thankyou👍

@@mrmartinb1615 The class 60 was I believe designed to pull 4500 tons from a standing start up a 1 in 100 rising gradient, which it most probably did on test when newly built as all had to prove themselves before being accepted and paid for by BR. The largest loads I have seen them work are around 3800 tons on slab trains north from Scunthorpe up to Teeside on their so called " Dumbo" workings. The smaller "jumbo" weighing in at about 3000 to 3200 requiring two class 66s if no 60 was available . A well known figure in the class 60 world Mr Blake (toton man ) , Once said, they can pull out, but the ones working out of Immingham have to be on song, they have to Work for a living.

@@mrmartinb1615 In their hay day of BR and early Ews there could be 10 tank trains every 24 hrs working out of Immingham refineries all loaded to 30 wagons + all the various iron ore and coal for Scunthorpe all being 2000 - 2500 ton loads.

@@moelSiabod14334 Wow, it must have been an incredible sight to see. The only time I've seen a class 60 on an oil train is when I was on the Kennet and Avon canal and even that was through dense tree growth......some thing weren't meant to be lol. I'm trying to replicate that in 00, I have 30 tankers....now just waiting on the class 60 from Cavalex.

@@moelSiabod14334 Holy shit, that's phenomenal. It really does blow my mind in what they can do and guessing 3800 tons is almost a walk in the park for them. lol. When on the narrow boat along the Kennet and Avon canal it was incredible to see the class 59's power the stone trains up to and over 4000 tons, to see it in a book is one thing but to see it in real life......oh wow... Hahaha, love it. Thank you for the info bud. 👍👍
