Hi I'm very interested in the possibility of making a live desil and yours is most like what i had in mind have you got any drawings of the drive arrangements you could send me ? Thanks
@KVSRmanager - If you follow the link to my web pages displayed in the last 10 seconds of the video you will find a description of the loco and some sketches of the drive arrangement,
@DebenValleyLightRail Control by 2.4 GHz radio with two servos. One operates the plate clutch and reversing bevel gears through a sliding cam. The other which operates the throttle in one direction and the silly little buzzers that pass for a horn in the other. One day I must fit a proper sound unit for the horn.

That's brilliant, it even sounds like a diesel!

Great to see this excellent machine in action again. Still very impressive after all these years and an inspiration to other 'live diesel' modellers.
