Here I get to test the newly fitted Summerlands Chuffer (see Part 3) - first on the bench and then out on the railway. I have to say this this little loco does produce a fine Chuff!

  • Hi

    I need to get an opinion I have been looking at both sites roundhouse and accucraft I have my a decision to make a roundhouse Bertie or a accucraft Ragleth I have a budget and tight on money because im just 14

  • @weimi05 - Only you can choose which suits you the best! I choose locos on how they look, but if I wanted to add radio for forward and reverse, then it has to be Ragleth. If I want a smaller loco for my railway then Bertie. Both are robust and great value and much can be done with them. Have a look at what I am doing to Bertie on the Garden Railway Club (Google it) and watch out for the next video.

    Good luck!

  • i am hopfully getting a bertie or a millie I cant decied!!

    

  • @weimi05 - Well they are both great locos! It is really down to which you prefer the look of. I am currently modifying my Bertie and writing it up on the Garden Railway Club site. There will be another video next month all being well.

    Cheers

  • Yes thanks I like them both but I like side tanks but not as much as saddle tanks

    Thanks Adam

  • @ColumbineMHLR - Thanks Pete - it was your notes I referred to when I was making Part 3! I have to say that I am absolutely delighted with the sound and running of this loco - why have I left it so long!!

    Cheers

  • Excellent set of videos. I still love running my Bertie with the chuffer even after 2 years or however long it's been fitted! Great stuff
