Hi folks, hope everyone's well. Having finally completed the fleet updates with the addition of the Electrostar and Networker units, I decided it was time to have a bit of fun running some trains - so here goes!
It's a short mix of things today, from both NSE and present day periods. I apologise for the awful sounds coming from the NSE Networker. I can't work out whether that's the new traction tyres rubbing, or if the motors are on the way out, but I hope to be able to sort it over Christmas. If any Networker owners can share their experience and expertise on this, I'd be grateful!
Also seen here are the two GBRF Class 73s, which are Hornby models but which I think still look cracking considering the age of the tooling. I have just added a Dapol Class 73 to the fleet and that will feature in an upcoming video.
Hope you enjoy this brief running session - I'd welcome any feedback and suggestions for future videos. I'll be concentrating more on scenic work in the new year, with works starting on the BT building to the north of the bridge to start with. I will try and get as much footage of progress as I can.
Many thanks to everyone who's watched, commented and subscribed - it's really appreciated and is keeping me motivated!

I've got the Networker in NSE livery and looking for the Connex version but mine has a broken bogie that needs repairing and you are right it has no pulling power !! Cheers Kev

Thanks Darrell, appreciate the kind comment :) Yeh that Networker thinks it's a Mallard 😂 Haven't had a chance to look at it yet, but remotoring is probably the way forward.

Great session, your stock looks very effective. I had a Hornby Networker when they first came out, nicely done body but it couldn't pull itself around the whole layout on the flat! Mine didn't do those duck sound effects though, I'm quite jealous😉

Ha ha! Thanks Steve. The quacking Networker is rather amusing - hoping to get it back into shape soon. The motors are really weedy on these things, but those heavy diecast chassis don't help. I don't know what Hornby were thinking when they designed it really!

great video, i noticed you have installed 3rd rail, i had a few strange noises after installing it and found the 'iron's' infront of the wheels of a few loco's would touch the 3rd rail on curves and needed filing a bit,

Yeh absolutely. I had that very problem with the Class 73s. I was scratching my head for ages trying to work out why they were derailing, until I realised the bogies were fouling the 3rd rail. It's not really been a problem with any other locos or units though.
