Sorry about that.

I have taken pictures of the locos I have in the house I have left the 2 dummy locos on my layout and obviously there is no picture of eddie the engine as yet as my wife has decided not to give me my xmas present early but has wrapped it up until the big day. boo hoo.

Sorry about the quality of the pics as they were taken with my camcorders camera function.

 

[harkins77]

I've managed to sneak into my shed today and managed to get some pictures of the locos I didn't get last night and have entered them onto my fotopic link as seen on my previous post.

Enjoy and Merry Christmas to all.

 

[Al]

Nice pics... The layouts looks good too from the couple we saw...

 

[harkins77]

Well I got my new Eddie the Engine today for my Christmas present and I have added a picture of it to my fotopic site.

 

[Al]

I've been wondering what this 'eddie the engine' thing was...

 

[harkins77]

Yeah it's Mr Stobart's entry to todays freight service liveries.

It is quite groovy.

 

[harkins77]

I've just added 66522 freightliner shanks to my collection which was a present from a relative and I went out and purchased the 2 telescopic steel hood vtg wagons to my collection.

The EWS class 73 is one I forgot to mention from my origional list which I am trying to convert to dcc, With a couple of problems so far.

[harkins77]

Well Eddie has had to go back to Bachmann due to a problem with screaching coming from the loco whilst bedding in possibly something to do with the gears and also the clips that connect to the motor have become loose after taking the board off to chip the loco following the instructions. I must admit I have never had a problem with them before after chipping other locos in my collection.

So not really a good couple of days for me.

MMMMMMMM this sounds a lot like my class 37 from bachmann after rebodying br green the gears it sounds under slight acceleration even scream, like the worm whizzing on a stripped out gear, after close inspection i cant find anything wrong with the gears.
So off to my local railway retailer with it for return.

Well I have just purchased another class 60 for my collection. It is another 60078 in mainline blue but I have also ordered a fox transfers set for the loco and I am going to renumber the loco when I arrives from Rails of Sheffield.

I will keep you updated when I get it and start to convert it to possibly 60011 or even 60044.

 

[harkins77]

Well I have managed to get a chassis for my class 37 body in DRS so all I need to do now is to chip my non dcc locos which includes the 37,47,20,08 and class 73.

 

[harkins77]

Well I have had a bit of a change around of my locos and I have added new pics of them on my fotopic site.

http://bitsandbobs.fotopic.net/c1428703.html

As you can see there has been a few locos gone due to them not being dcc'd and so all the locos I have apart from the non working ones of course.

The collection now contains

4 class 60's various liveries

8 class 66's various liveries

1 class 57 in virgin livery

1 class 86 stored loco.

1 dutch liverid class 31 scrap line

5 hst's various liveries ( 3 dummy power cars and 2 powered ones).

And obviously few bits of rolling stock.

Any comments would be welcome.

Both of the powered hst power cars have been dcc'd by Chuffers of Guisborough.

The loco runs like a dream and I can't wait to get it working on the layout once it has been wired up.

 

[7113]

Very nice - I always did like British Steel blue.
