Yeh don’t know why they ask so much money for these xpts ,I managed to win this in an eBay auction for £51 so was quite happy it’s in excellent condition,how many coaches did they used to run on them,I would presume they had a power car at the back also .Hope you are having some nice weather down there 👍👍👍👍
@tonypetts6663Ай бұрын
XPT! Strangely enough I was looking (for some unknown reason at stupid o'clock in the morning, just like now really!) for images of these on googlieyes and saw the Auscision HO models of these. 7 coach sets, available in 3 different liveries and absolutely excellent. The price to our aus brothers and sisters? Aus$ 1,400 - $1,650, so £700 to £850 if you want sound. Expensive on the face of it but considering some single locos can cost more than half that figure down under I think that this is not too bad of a deal. Still could never afford it though😂

Hi ,I use a rubber mostly,and also meths and a rag,which clears all the oil up ,also important to clean the points,on the contact points in the switching part,.if you run Hornby track like me,there is a small contact point which connects under the rail which also need to be clean,
@davidrigby79848 ай бұрын
cheers Trotski, nice to see the trains running again. how often do you need to clean the track and of so what methods do you use? reason I ask, I had some running problems recently, I normally go round with the track rubber but still had some issues. I just recently tried the track magic and all my running issues have gone, seems to be good stuff. 👍

Apart from the drop of oil on motor bearings, ringfields enjoy most a light oil on the axles. This is because it self cleans and stops the differing metals black corrosion. Its through the chassis that they pick up of course.
