I honestly dont know, that loco left my hand years ago. When setting I found the best way was firstly going to extremes and getting it totally out of sync and then adjusting 1 value at speed step between 1/128 to 5/128 and slowly bring it into sync that way. That way it gives you a better idea. Hope that helps.
Good stuff sir, it's certainly much better than my strasight out of the box job BUT........
........ years ago I had a tri-ang one and it SMOKED ! Not only did it smoke but it puffed smoke in time to the wheel turns and the speed of the loco. The gimmick was called "synchrosmoke" (as it was synchronised with the wheels turning and was done by a piston moving inside a smoke chamber inside the boiler. Now let me see you mount that on board too and you can name your own price, lol ! ! !
hi, I have a Bachmann jinty too. I was wonder how you took yours apart to gain access to the cab? I'd like to paint mine up and add a crew similar to yours...
It's surpose to be 4 chuffs per wheel turn. If a locomotive has 2 cylinders to chuffs every 90degrees of a wheel turn. 180degrees per cylinder because steam leaves when the piston it reaches front or rear, and since the cylinders are set at a 90degree difference you have 4 chuffs a turn.
Very very nice model and well fitted - the new lamps from DCC are pretty good too. Not sure about the sway and roll, although I guess it's prototypical! Good Vid.
that is a realy nice train, i hav 1 i brought it for a £5 at a market and it was a old triang and the man said it doesnt work so i got it and sorted it out and it runs smoothly and and has no problems with it, very good video keep then up :)
@andy123412345 I know you said this along time ago, but i recently got an old tri-ang one, has the number, '47606'. I would like to get it running again as at the moment it doesnt, how did you do it?
Sounds soooooooo unlike the real thing. Essentially, DCC Sound does not work. The problem is the sound that you are trying to replicate compared to the size of the speaker fitted to the model. Its a little bit like using earphones on max volume as speakers for your TV.
@williamcawdry Hi It is the new rolling road manufactured by DCC Concepts and it is available from most hobby shops in the UK. It does about 6 different gauges 00, EM N gauge P4 etc.
Finally tracked one down Brada make them and they are very very expensive! I have looked at many different options but I just cannot see it being a commercial project.
Thank you for the comments. Now that is not a bad idea at all but I think the loco would need to be well weighted. I think stationery brushes would be the way to go while it is running on the rollers. It would be a difficult job to incorporate into the rollers. That is actually a very good idea the more I think about it. Lets see what I can come up with. Program while you clean! I like it. Thanks.
Will look forward to seeing if you can make one I think a lot of people would be interested in buying one, to clean the wheels now with trying to hold 2 wires on the wheels and clean with cotton bud or the bachman brush is difficult
I had a close look at my rolling road rollers last night, and I was surprised how much grime gets onto them. They will need to be retractable so you can use it in "no load conditions". Leave it with me.
how did you put the lights in?

Would it work if I put these LMS lights on a Black 5 that's in BR livery or did the lights change when the Black 5's went to BR?
h09anderson123 2 years ago
Hi
If the loco is ex LMS it would have kept its lights into BR days. I have seen a couple of B&W photos with A3 using LMS lights in BR days.

If you manage to make one it could be a real winner, a lot of people I would think would be willing to buy one, Best of Luck with it

That is very realistic sound, can you clean the wheels somehow with the rolling track?
Well done as usuall.
