Good job. I have just got 2 HST GWR coaches. In the morning I am of to Bazrail in Blackpool for a week of model railway building.😊😊❤

[@modeloco]

That sounds great and Thank You Steven as always. Enjoy👍

[@AllensTrains]

Helpful video. However, I would err on the side of wider spacing. Bear in mind wider spacing is prototypical for a high speed line. Narrower spacing is more steam era! Thanks for uploadin.

[@modeloco]

Thanks and interesting. Yes I’m definitely wanting as closer spacing as possible for minimum 2nd Radius on both OO & TT. Being aware that both gauges have a slightly different track geometry 👍

[@timallen_uk]

Nice one, the detail on the coaches are amazing. I’ve got the grey mk3s and HST and they too look fantastic. Due to only being on a 6 x 4 board I opted for 4 coaches and it doesn’t look out of place, can’t wait to see you have all of them hooked up.

[@modeloco]

I’m constantly looking at the detail on these and in 4k video it’s hard to appreciate how tiny some of this really is compared to OO. The coach lettering for instance is very noticeable on OO but, on TT it’s very easily overlooked 👍

[@ianhughes-zf1ll]

Great video. Ordering some now thanks for the review

[@modeloco]

You’re up early I see. Hope all is going well at your end Ian, Regards, Andy

[@richardswiderski4985]

Although a 00 man I do like TT;:120 it does look good .and those coaches are great. 👍

[@modeloco]

Yes, there’s definitely a warming of hearts I’d say, surrounding TT:120 🙏

[@richardswiderski4985]

All those doubters out there.Oh 🤣🤣

@@richardswiderski4985 influencers pushing the boundaries of acceptable critique. I doubt very much we’ll see a Locomotion Motion style send up of Accurascale ever or, certainly never, to the same degree that the three others targeted, have had to sustain. Yes, a part of me does find this very funny at times. There are some bitter truths in there at times but, Who’s really driving the algorithm here. Us, the ai or something bigger with an interest in market share. In one respect it could be reverse psychology because if it is, it seems to be working despite the rrrrrrap-peeeedohhhh attempts to bin TT and the rest.

[@richardswiderski4985]

😂😂 totally agree with you there. On a current note I cannot get your tune out of my head.🤯🎶🎶🚂

[@dlbiggins]

even dictionaries get updated.

[@modeloco]

They do. 👍

[@earlfreeman93]

What is the output voltage for TT scale trains?

[@modeloco]

Hello, Earl, When you say output, I’m not really sure what you mean but, on my Hornby TT3004M - TT:120 Flying Scotsman it states on the packaging 12V-15V if this is what you’re referring to?

[@spaggtrait1608]

Video starts at 2:50 you're welcome

Yes, my 2nd chapter was 30 seconds off. Now updated 👍

Great episode, thank you I enjoy the channel. TT gauge is starting to look interesting and viable! BTW, a pet hate of many people's, including me, is the mystifying pronunciation of the letter H, which of course is regularly used in train circles with reference to Class 43 HSTs. It is spelt Aitch, it doesn't start with the letter H! Why do you pronounce it "Haitch"? Please don't offer the lame excuse of it being a regional dialect thing either, because it is wrongly pronounced across the entire country and especially all too frequently here on KZbin. It is to me both baffling and quite ridiculous! Do you breathe "air" or do you breathe "hair", is it racing at "Aintree" or "Haintree" and does a farmer have an "acre" of land or an "hacre" of land? You see, you can pronounce correctly! What is going on with people with HST? So, please, let's not perpetuate this blight on the the English language, general public ignorance and offence to my ears! :) lol......Half said in jest you realise! Anyway, keep up the good work and entertainment! kind regards, Julian, at Valebridge Model Railway.

Olicana Grammer Skool four ya. Lol 😂 oops bet that drove you bannannaz. Olicana was the Roman name given to Ilkley so at least that’s grammatically correct. Hey, you learn something every day and yes, I guess even knowing that spelling, which I have seen on occasion, one could easily slip into a mispronunciation. I was never actually ever shown a list of correct spellings for the alphabet. I always wanted to know this up until I left the Grammar gates. My other sin is, I don’t like full stops. Are you a Teacher or into Science in some way. Dont tell me your an electrician because Engineers used to coin them, failed scientists. It used to make me giggle that.

[@modeloco]

Thanks Julian enjoyed that and again… I now see Valebridge Model Railway so, my last quiz at your path in life would have to be before or alongside this vocation 👍

@@modeloco I just a have a large amount of general interests including all of the sciences, and more ologies than you could shake a stick at! I like to understand how things work. I'm certainly not interested in the usual twaddle that the general public seem to fill their lives with though! celebrities, films, shopping and 'avin' a laff wiv me mates" etc. I'm from an electro mechanical background ...and a state comprehensive! :)

@@modeloco I would thank you for the comment... but I've not a clue what it meant! :) The model railway was a childhood hobby. I'm revisiting that interest fifty years on!

@@theeventhorizon-valebridge9512 My apologies if I came over too cryptic. All fun and stuff. Sort of following on from your initial Aitch and btw just amended my latest video as I did say Haitch, not Aitch. Have been looking at your model railway channel too. Excellent. TT is definitely gaining ground I’d say. Plus, quite a few modelers and creatives I’m sure, are not sat in front of the revolving ads and news reels of despair, etc, etc, etc👍
