Hey man...This is the set i'm getting in a few weeks. is there lighting built into the coaches? Wont mention it on the box or in the Hornby site. If not, can you tell me how you added the lighting? Thanks in advance! You have a beautiful layout!
Wow. Tis is really good. At some ponts in the video when the camera is next to the track it looks almost real. If you used a sky backdrop it could have fooled me.
Thank you all for your compliments. It just goes to show that if someone enjoys doing something, it usually turns out well. I will be filming more footage this weekend, so watch this space!
I used 3x 'grain of wheat' bulbs soldered to copper tape on the inside roof of each carraige. I wired the connections through a drilled hole in the middle of the bogey pivot, and used thin wire, shaped and bent to make connections with the inside wall of each wheel (I had some spare time). This is why you han hear a 'squealing' noise as the train runs round the track.
its easy to find pictures of the flying scotsman but i havnt seen any propper pictures of it pullnig these carraiges in real life... if it did (i have this set) it would have more than 3 i noticed u can get a sleeper that matches these, how many cars would it pull in real life that r this style?
Yes, the coaches do indeed have lights in them. I used 3x 'grain of wheat' bulbs soldered to two srips of copper tape inside the roof of the carriage. this is wired to brass wire which rubs on the wheels for electrical pickup. I employed the same method to the coaches featured in my Royal Scot video. Thanks for watching and dont forget to rate! :-)
You ran over a camera man! How could you? Did you do a funeral by tying him to the tracks? That'll teach him a lesson...
Great video!
