  • wow awesome set! your layout is one of the best ive seen ive made one like that i have the virgin pendolino

  • 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!

  • thats a great layout. U could get sum Thomas characers and start a series!

  • 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.

  • Did the Coaches have lights in them?

  • 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! :-)
