Mate I love watching your videos for the quality of all the items you buy and run. You have impeccable taste and manage to get hold of some very exclusive stuff. I really enjoy you sharing and don't think it's excessive, if I could afford it all I would go the same way! How the heck do you get the OK to spend so much on your hobby? Can you share the secret? I'm into Bachmann and Hornby and thought that was expensive! Keep posting these as it shows us what's available on the European scene....looks to kill everything else for quality. All the best, Stephen only just realised that this video is from 2 yrs ago!

Stephen Wratten Hi,Stephen many thanks...yeah I buy a lot of stuff but a lot of it is second hand form sellers across France Germany and Austria..its just a matter waiting for a bargin to come up... The quality of the locos are mazing they just run and run and never derail inc all the coaches and wagons, the euro stuff is more expensive but worth the extra money.... jim

Hi simon..if you looks around you can get the rolling road as a single item on eBay Germany and some ebay shops just want to move them out of there stock so some auctions end at very good prices. I got mine with over 50% discount on this item..

@hovermotion9 жыл бұрын
Hi Rob....it runs on special spring wires..the faster the loco go's the faster the wire gos..etc all controled via the built in z21 interface. .funny to watch as sometimes if it go's out of sync or changing speed the two censors take over to correct and recenter on the plynth when it's in motion or when it comes to a halt.
