Nice haul Tim. Lima did a good job with their King Class locos, yours even has the bell insitu. I don't mind tender drive locos, people think they are poor runners, but mine all run really well. Steven.

Thanks Steven, Yeah I don't have any issues with tender drive locos... I usually just service and oil them and they run just fine for me.... that one with the Pullman carriages needs a wheel clean but otherwise all 3 are a good score for me. Thanks for your comments.

The Tri-ang Class 3F Tender will have larger flanges so won't like newer Points. She was designed for code 125 Series 3 and Super 4 track. The Hornby Pannier Tank may have the same issue, still being of Tri-ang tooling. All 3 new loco's are in great condition. Great additions. 👍

Hi Dave.. I love the little steamers... The 0-6-2 was a bargain due to it not running correctly and someone removing the DCC board and hard wiring the motor wires to the pickup wires so it is DC only which suits me just fine... I did notice they ran the black texta over the DCC ready part on the box..... It will feature in an upcoming repair video...

Blimey. You blokes whining all the time. Nice cranes. You blokes only have 2 axles per "wagon". When we change from plastic to metal wheelsets we have 4 per "wagon" as you blokes call a piece of rolling stock. Been building up my MOW fleet and have about 15 cars of various kinds in HO scale. Just got 4 new engines for Christmas. 3 MRC (Model Rectifier Corporation) EMD F-7's, 2 are FP-7A's & 1 F-7B. Got one Athearn FP-7A Amtrak to pull my Amtrak coaches. I really love the MRC models as they were the top of the line several years ago. They have 5 pole skewed armatures in a can motor, see through Farr grilles, all grab irons installed except for the eyebrow and front grille grabs. Also you can clip off the fake lift rings on top and add your own real ones. They have interiors and are already wired for DCC; just add a decoder of your choice. All mine came from fleaBay but are in excellent to new condition. I got each engine for under $50.00/each including shipping. Merry Christmas. Cheers from eastern TN

Good stuff Tim. The B12 body and tender look genetally in good condition. R.866 from 1970 to 1979. The number on the body is not always the catalogue number as it was too hard to change the body mold for different livery of the same model. I just rebuilt a B12 Chassis for that model, same colour Apple Green wheels. That DMU runs great. Nice collection. Happy Trains 👍

Excellent system. I used a similar siphon system with the same 1inch clear hose to connect my sump to the aquarium and works perfectly. No need for drilling or worries about overflows during power outages, etc. Only I could not get the push connectors locally so I used pvc elbows and fittings and silicone to make it airtight and clamped the joins using either clamps or cable ties depending on the situation.

What’s your method for dechlorinating and heating the new water please?
@TimsBitsnPieces
@TimsBitsnPieces 3 ай бұрын
Hi well if you have read through the previous comments you will see that I leave the lid off the IBC and cover it with flyscreen material. This lets the chlorine dissipate itself over time (Here in Melbourne Australia we do not have a high chlorine level in our water). I do not preheat the water going into the tanks, as colder water going into the tanks makes the fish think that it is raining and thus stimulates them into the breeding cycle....

@@TimsBitsnPieces OK. So this is just a suggestion that you can ignore if you want. How about a train running on the oval track with each videos new arrivals at the end of each video? Seeing them running even for 10 seconds shows them off together. Your audience may find this more interesting than you do and this is done by many different channels. Up to you 👍 Have a great weekend

Thanks for posting!! I am trying to setup a system with no drain but going through a room window. I need to use the pump to drain the tanks and normal water pressure to fill them. Going to add a hose connection at freshwater in, controlled water in and also a pump inlet for controlled vacuuming. I should get multiple options to drain, fill and transfer water and can add exterior filtration and water sources easily if needed. Cheers! Let me also add that I have looked for days for Drain type systems and there are none to be found.
