@Cromptonman Thank you sir. Thats very kind. It's not a quality thing. I mean it won't last in my collection. It'll be on ebay soon. Then buy cheaper hornby ones. 👍
@Cromptonman10 күн бұрын
Ah..I get your wisdom😂 I previously owned a couple of Hornby 31’s and must agree they looked and performed very well. I sold them on when I went to 0 gauge so never found out if their chassis rotted out. I’m back with 00 and have an Accurascale 31 and tbh didn’t think there was much difference between the two. I’m tempted to dabble with a Hornby one if I can find the right one 👍🏻

@RedShedNick no need to be sorry at all. I've got it on order too. It's been a Knottingley regular a few times. I've been fortunate to have it single handed on a charter into drax and sandwiched between 073/050 also on a charter into drax (in my charter video. Part 3 I think)

A model railway replicates the real thing, so it must be copied correctly. Otherwise don't bother doing it, all my locos and stock are matched to Time, Livery and Era. No loco will run with stock it shouldn't.

Just to advise you, 73/1s and 73/0s cannot work in multiple, the 73/0s (JA) can only work in multiple with another 73/0. 73/1s (JB) can also only work with fellow 73/1s. This is down to each class having a different control system, which is different from each sub class. They could work in tandem, but on no account were the 27 way control jumpers to be connected between a 73/0 and a 73/1, only air brake pipes, vacuum brake pipes were permitted to be joined together, normally the ones on the buffer beams. Hope this helps, not being pedantic, just pointing out something , I worked on class 73s for many years. Great layout, love it.
