Hello again, here’s another video, twice as long as the last, hope you enjoy!
PS getting the sound levels correct is an art in itself, please comment let’s get some conversations going, my mrs isn’t interested so I crave some railway attention 😆
If you haven’t subscribed please consider it, the channel is new so needs a good push, it’s light hearted and a very much beginner type setup, learning as I go.
If you like it please click like (I never do myself and now realise the importance of it) if you don’t like it tell me why in the comments, I’m trying to be a bit different with my videos having a bit of a chat as a voiceover and the funny thing is I’m just making it all up as I go along! It does mean that I get to run some trains around though which is a good thing. Its all light hearted i like to have a bit if a laugh along the way.
So get on board and enjoy the ride 😃😃😃🚂

Class. You should definitely keep doing videos, and definitely keep up the commentaries. I am both subscribed and addicted to Liberty Junction.

Really nice Modern Outline illustration. Imagine most everyone shares the agonising issue of acquisitions. I cure mine by giving in! So get that 56. Better still,get both. Coincidentally I am getting the two you suggest. ( From Rails of Sheffield. At the time of writing they are down to DCC Ready models. Fitted all sold! However no warranty issues and Legomanbiffo +Loksound combo hard to better.) Top work all round.( Commentary included!)

Hi Dave, just subscribed agree with you on the hunts couplings material being crap but if you use a bit of pva glue 👍 a bit of water to remove them cheers Al

Didn’t think about PVA I did superglue a couple but they snapped off after the glue ruining the nem pocket 😫

People pre-ordered the Cavalex 56 two years ago, then when they come into stock the retailer contacts you and you pay for it and it arrives as soon as they post or courier it out to you. No one pays at the time of pre-order, same as any other manufacturer.

@doubleodave 5 ай бұрын

I wasn't knocking this concept just saying not for me i'm too impatient and would have no fingernails left! i'll wait until they're released and pick one up if there's any leftover. I managed to secure a Cavalex 56 this way. For info I did preorder £200+ of wagons from Accurascale last year and paid the full balance at the time and they're still not released yet. I ended up cancelling the preorder getting a refund and buying some in stock Bachmann ones. All the best, Dave

Nice vid there Dave… Interesting that you’ve highlighted the fact that hunt couplings are as brittle as ****! Removing them usually ends up with them breaking & black tac is the answer to keep them going, I thought it was just me 😂 Really enjoyed your video. Cheers John b😎

Cheers John 👍 at least it’s keeping the black tac fold in business 😆

@chris_3636 5 ай бұрын

Great video 👍. I pre-ordered my Cavalax 56s from Rails, nearly 3 years ago (2021), and you pay a £30 deposit on each, balance paid on delivery. It's frustrating that with Accurascale, if you don't commit to buying when the model is announced, you miss out on it. Ordering them through Rails and Hattons (enough said about the loss of that store) you did have the opportunity to cry off if your situation changes.

With the hunt couplings I use them for my coaching stock but use kadees for between locos and rolling stock and bogie tankers, there are some issues with them but in a hole I've had little trouble with them

@doubleodave 5 ай бұрын

To be fair the magnets are amazing, there’s been a comment about using a little PVA to hold them in this may be the answer, I fully agree that when installed and held in place they are decent and as you say kadees at the sections you wish to uncouple is 👌 thanks for watching 👍

Still in the development stage, track-work all done but no scenics as of yet. Going to watch your other videos to see the locos you have. Keep up the good work. 👍🏻👍🏻

Just subscribed your layout looks great, I know what😊 you mean it's only recently I have done the preordered , the new locos as most of mine are second hand of ebay over many years and they are as good as new and the old locos are as good as the new ones, apart from the sound and some extra details they run just as good, keep up the good work 👏

Thanks for the sub! Yeah my 37 red stripe was used off eBay, you hear the odd horror story about bad deals so I always make sure to read the full description then you’re covered, but couldn’t be happier with what I’ve purchased on there so far, nearly all my rolling stock has come from eBay 👍

Hi Dave, I'm newish back to the hobby. Also gone mad buying locos. I like my Bachmann 24,37 and 47's. Nice layout. Would appreciate a running session showing the kadea couplings working. As i hate the standard ones. Mine is an end to end layout. Station and TMD. Not sure what to get. Some KZfaqrs recomend/ dont criticise so eventually they get free products if they get popular ! Cheers Mike.

OO Railway PIVOTING SQUARE MAGNETIC COUPLINGS 23mm Nem to Nem pockets, 5 Pairs off eBay do pretty well with my EWS hopper wagons n even work well dragging my bachmann class 66 colas non runner as a double header with ma hattons class 66 one freightliner which I’d so recommend trying to get ahold of as it looks great dragging a rake of container wagons n also the OO Railway PIVOTING SQUARE MAGNETIC COUPLINGS 23mm Nem to Nem pockets, 5 Pairs work well with the container wagons too well recommended, if you ever do invest in container wagons then best ones going are the Kia/kta Dapol pocket wagons or the Dapol few-b spine wagon twin pack freightliner, avoid the real track models freightliner fla wagons twin pack as they’re so light n wobbly not the mention the wheels are so tiny the derail a lot n a mean a lot soooo annoying
