VINTAGE HORNBY GWR MIXED FREIGHT TRAIN SET R865

[@PhilCrompton]

This was a great little set with loads of play value

Nice how they managed to get it to sound almost, but not quite, entirely unlike a locomotive!

Pretty good for back then tho,not like today where you think it could actually be real,just impressive that it still worked

@@trotskis00layouts Ah, the wonders of the microchip. However, I've found Hornby's basic TTS sound, which is what I used to make all the videos on my channel, isn't always all that good. On the other hand, I find the realistic but expensive DCC sound is isn't loud enough, even on the maximum setting I can program, and it gets drowned out by wheel noise if you have a few loco's going at once. So yes, this won't happen here - but it would definitely give me a headache after 5 minutes!
