Hi, lovely locomotive. Glad you got three more coaches for the original rake of three coaches

@ashraaqwahab 18 күн бұрын
Thanks so much! Yes it's indeed a very pleasant runner, especially at the slower speeds that make model railroading far more reflective of the real thing. Really enjoy running it on my layout, especially with the full six-coach rake in all its glory. The added crew also brings a sense of interest. Must install some passengers within the coaches in due course.

Fun Fact : its pronounced Alpeen (the french pronounce ''I'' as ''E'') , you'd see this confusion in many reviews ,including James May pronouncing it as 'Alpine', this is similar to the misleading 'Porsche' pronunciation.

Nice video. You may want to invest in some form of tripod or something like that for your camera as the "jerkiness" makes it hard to see what is really going on. :) They also make "standard" gauges for almost any scale that allows you to check wheel gage, track gage, coupler height, etc.
@ashraaqwahab
@ashraaqwahab Ай бұрын
Thanks David. I have a proper camera tripod but the restricted space within my layout's central well (since it's a 6x7 with a central well) makes it hard to deploy fully. I should look into a monopod which will take much less space.

Hi Ashraaq, I was interested in the wiring of the LED and Resistors on the strip board. So my question. Is the board isolated between the holes. Is it possible for a close up of the strip board rear for me to see. I have a few strip boards and found it ideal, after watching your video, to use a piece of strip board. Thanks once again for your review.
@ashraaqwahab
@ashraaqwahab 2 ай бұрын
Thanks! I'll send you a photo of the strip board I use. The rows of holes are connected in a strip of copper, with isolation between the adjacent rows. So, if you were to place an LED with the positive leg in one row and the negative leg in another row, it will work when you apply power in one direction. Then, when you attach another LED in the opposite direction, that one will light up when you reverse the polarity of the power supply. It is also possible to buy a form of board where each hole is totally isolated, with only a ring of copper surrounding it, to aid soldering. This board allows you to totally make your own connections vertically, horizontally, and diagonally, with solder bridges and bridge wires, but for this application, it's a bit overkill.

Did you ever figure out how to connect the trailer to the cab? It should just be a "pin" that sits in a "hole" sized to receive it. You are correct in that those folding wheels are for when the trailer is not connected to the cab and they should be retraced (folded up) when it is connected.
@ashraaqwahab
@ashraaqwahab 3 ай бұрын
Yeah I did. There's a pin and two openings, but the whole thing is so loose and uncertain that you can't even be sure if it's fitted correctly. Even if you lift it up, you've got to hold the cab and trailer in each hand, or else they just slip out. And if you try pushing it along a level surface, they sometimes disconnect. Strictly a static model, this one.

Thanks! It's indeed a weird thing, and annoyingly, happens when you're using a lot of bandwidth. So you could be watching a video and find the mouse lagging. Then, you'll find it normally working during regular web browsing that doesn't use much bandwidth. Of course, none of this with a wired mouse, or one that doesn't operate on a frequency that's too close to your WiFi's frequency.

Hi Ashraaq, This is from 1979 ish (you can find dates for models by entering R352 to the hornby railways collector guide) From what you've said I would have used some spirits (lighter fluid) to clean the commutator and the slots. Also lubricating the two ends of the armature shaft. Not too much as the oil dripping down onto the contacts will make a horrible burning smell. Ringfields generally can't lose magnetism as the ring magnet acts as its own keep. 99% of the time they can be rescued, so if you want to fully strip down the motor and have a go at restoring it yourself, go to @00Bill His videos will really help. I have begun to really dislike the abundance of the CD motor. As a beginner I did this and is has not got the power of original ringfields. I have one of these as original which i thoroughly cleaned and it pulled 16 coaches with no real issues!! I would recommend grease on the gears. New brushes too as the old ones can become easily worn and fill the slots in the commutator, shorting and overheating the armature. The gear noise can be solved by removing any flash on gears too. I hope this helps, perhaps you might refit the old motor? If you polish up the contacts it will be a great runner! Best wishes from England Will
