[HornbyExpress]

@InterCity82, I really apreciate that Will. Thanks! :)

[HornbyExpress]

could you email me your design? I abserloutly love it

[InterCity82]

@HornbyExpress - send me a personal message with your email address and I'll see what I can do

[London667568]

@InterCity82 Did you turn that into a dcc fitted or was it already like that.

[InterCity82]

@London667568 - it was converted to DCC - and was NOT easy I can tell you! lol

[TheDavidtjudd]

why do you say she to the locos you have

[InterCity82]

@TheDavidtjudd - many working machines and locomotives are referred to as 'she' or 'her' - basically as females. This stems from workmen calling their machines female names many, many years ago. Plus, anything that works hard is female... ask your mum! lol

[MagmorterSaysHi]

@InterCity82 If a Loco is not given a masculine name Eg; "Warrior, Little Giant" they are refered to as She, correct?

[CrazyCow138]

I have that Loco. :)

[realsteam123]

Does this loco have sprung Buffers ?

[InterCity82]

@realsteam123 - no, but I don't think any of the 0-4-0s do

[FiendishRed16]

I've got the Caledonain Railway 0-4-0. I bought it from the railroad range. I love it, its got so much charecter for such a little loco. But it is a bit wussy when I try and use it for shunting. =/ Again the power to weight ratio isn't that good. But I love her none the less. It'd be great if you could go back and do a video on it. =)

[InterCity82]

@FiendishRed16 - a video on her and all my 0-4-0 shunters is awaiting upload. Stuck in the queue basically. :)

[FiendishRed16]

@InterCity82 Awesome can't wait to see it. =)

[NeonMonkey5000]

With a layout like that?

[NeonMonkey5000]

Are you hoping to build a scenery to make it look really realistic or are you sticking

[InterCity82]

@NeonMonkey5000 - this is just a temporary layout, the proper one will be several times bigger and have full scenery and buildings.

[KnapfordMaster98]

Did the caledonian come DCC ready or fitted?

[InterCity82]

@KnapfordMaster98 - neither! She was non-DCC ready, but after some soldering and moving about of wires, she is now 100% DCC fitted.

[helloimearl1]

nice them streamlined points make the train cross really smooth like ther not ther!

[InterCity82]

@helloimearl1 - yup!

[itgamer100]

wow ,so cool ,i need to make a plan of my layout

[InterCity82]

@itgamer100 - thanks!

[xGAMERKIDX]

how many red 0F's do you have?

[InterCity82]

@xGAMERKIDX - none. But I have 1x blue one, 2x black ones, and 3x maroon ones

[xGAMERKIDX]

@InterCity82 i meant maroon i just couldnt be sure

the only 0-4-0 i have is a industrail

are they all DCC chipped?

[InterCity82]

@xGAMERKIDX - no, only the Caledonian Railway is chipped. They're very hard to do as they're so small.

[ImprovedAtom]

will how tall are you? just wondering

[InterCity82]

@ImprovedAtom - lol, slightly random - I'm 6ft 1"

[jaannetts16]

a great set up

[InterCity82]

@jaannetts16 - thanks Jaike! Not as good as yours tho

[realsteam123]

Could you please review this loco ?

[InterCity82]

@realsteam123 - really? Sure ok, she's only small but yup, I'd be happy to take an in-depth look at her.

[realsteam123]

Thanks a lot !

[trainlover658]

i've been wanting to see this one in action, great job :)

[InterCity82]

@trainlover658 - this particular loco? She features in upcoming videos too :)

[trainlover658]

@InterCity82 well the main reason is because she's DCC fitted

[Whizzer1]

on the train Cabinet you have a few lttle 0-4-0ST engines

[InterCity82]

@Whizzer1 - yeah, I think I've got 6x now
