Dapol Class 08 with Hornby TTS - Fitting DCC Sound - O Gauge Model Railway - Digital Sound

[@classictraction1744]

Your layout looks fantastic and the weathering on those wagons is spot on. I remember some being so rusty, that you could never tell whether they were meant to be grey or bauxite / brown livery 😃

[@SDJR7F88]

Many thanks and glad you like the weathering! Really pleased with how they turned out

[@djburland]

This is great and love the 0 Gauge realism. I fitted a TTS to my older Class 31 diesel

[@SDJR7F88]

Really is good value for money these chips. The 31 is another one of my favourite sound files. Glad you enjoyed!

[@mysticrailroad]

outstanding model and it sounds great! weathering on those wagons is special.

[@SDJR7F88]

Thanks ever so much! Certainly not bad for the price. Glad you like the weathering! So pleased with how they turned out :)

Hi Callum. I'm putting an online show next month to support the Cholsey & Wallingford Railway. As Class 08s are the mainstay of the C&WR's operations I was wondering if you'd have any objections to my including a link to this video from the show page.

Wish I could find a tts to go in mine they sound so good I cant afford the 100 plus for another well named one

[@SDJR7F88]

From what I gather they are on back order at Hornby, so hopefully back in stock soon

Glad you like it! It's one of Peco's new photographic ones. Highly recommend! :)

Is that in your garden? If so, you’re a lucky guy!! Even in dear old Hoddesdon, Hertfordshire, I don’t have views like that!!!!

My garden? It's Peco Backscene 😅

Good one!!

Thanks

It’s ok but lacking traction motor whine and slow shunt control. Still it’s a good value decoder providing you don’t pull to much weight or you’ll fry it. You have to remember pulling O gauge stock is heavy and that in turn increases the amp draw of the motor, the TTS decoders don’t take a lot to fry them so be warned if running on larger layouts.

[@SDJR7F88]

Indeed, thankfully the plan is to just have this one operating on a small micro shutting just a handful of wagons

[@gs425]

@@SDJR7F88 The way around this is just to piggyback the TTS onto one rated for O gauge. Still gives cheap sound.

I Wish I could get one fore chritmas.

Really is a nice model

Nope, British Rail Class 08

[@anamarijacovic3503]

@@SDJR7F88 LMS PAXTON V1 (Diesel) they are prototypes of O8s

[@SDJR7F88]

Yes they were, but this model is a British Rail Class 08. Different engine, and shape!

[@Madonsteamrailways]

Don’t forget that the MAXIMUM SPEED of the prototype is a mere FIFTEEN MILES PER HOUR!!

[@SDJR7F88]

Scale speed of 8mph here
