Thank you for your comment Charlie & many thanks for the feedback. I'm glad you found the video useful. Let me know how you get on with the conversion ! All the best...Andy

Thank you for your feedback and I'm glad you enjoyed the video. I've been meaning to carry on this project for ages but other things keep getting in the way. I've got so many other bits to do but I'll get around to it at some point :) Thanks for watching........Andy

Hi Dalip, thank you very much for your kind words. I hope the video can be some help to you and good luck with the conversion. I really need to get my skates on and do the next video in this project - I still need to fit some led lighting and weather the model. Take care & all the best.......Andy

Glad the video is of use to you buddy. Thanks for your feedback 😀 👍...Andy

Thanks Darren, i attempted to make this one as clear as possible - my HST motor upgrade wasn't really detailled ( it was a bit basic) so I spent a bit of time to make this one better. Thnks for your positive feedback, much appreciated.

@@Andy-SharlstonEastgate great video ! I am about to DCC mine as well but what motor type is that?

@@davidcurrie8564 Thanks David. This the original motor from Mainline. It's a type of ringfield, very similar to the Hornby one. It's a reliable version though, runs like a dream after 30+ years ! Cheers, Andy

@@Andy-SharlstonEastgate cheers Andy I never saw that type before! I disconnected all the capacitors and now left with the DCC wiring job lights too.. heres hoping!

@@Andy-SharlstonEastgate Hi Andy! Finally got the 56 wired to the 8 pin decoder now i have Both lights at both cab ends working at the same time? i took out the diode on the bulb wires maybe that was the problem your 56 was different from mine too I had two wires from the rear bogie as opposed to your one black wire I also had the red wire on the front motor bogie ( yours was black) I'll use my mobile to take photos the next time. I seen the lighting wires on the diagram but puzzled as the 56 has the headlight plus the two lights near the buffers running constantly green wires etc now back into it!

Thanks for your feedback Mark, I'm glad the video was useful to you, all the best..........Andy

Hi Martin, the sound at the beginning is from a real Class 26 - over dubbed on the video :) Thanks for your comment, all the best......Andy

@@Andy-SharlstonEastgate Ahh...that's cool to know, my friend.

Thank you very much my friend 👍

@@Andy-SharlstonEastgate you're welcome friends🙂

Thanks 👍

Hi Jed, yes, it will. Just check if your Lima motor has a capacitor across the motor contacts, if it has you will be best to remove it first. Otherwise this method will work perfectly for a TTS chip. Any problems drop me an email. Regards, Andy

Hi Johnny, unfortunately I didn't get round to completing this project. I still have the loco but a hundred other jobs have got in the way ! Thanks for your interest in the video......Andy

Hi there & thanks for watching. Not thought about a re-chassis really, tbh it's finding the time. At the moment I'm planning the new layout & also trying to improve my painting & weathering skills - maybe a project for the future. All the best..............Andy

Hi Hammer, thanks for watching. I'll be designing and fitting lights in the next video, stay tuned for the next installment 👍....Andy

@@Andy-SharlstonEastgate thanks I will be watching it

Hi Gamer, not had a lot of time for the railway tbh, I have started filming Part 3 but not got very much done. I'll see if I can make some progress soon. Thanks for watching........Andy

Exactly the same way Andrew. The speaker is attached to the decoder so just plug it into the socket and away you go 👍 thanks for watching and all the best.....Andy
