    There's always someone who finds something to harp on about when a new model appears, and this time it's me! Steam issuing from cylinder drain cocks is such a distinctive sight and sound when a big steam loco moves off. Surely that could have been programmed in? But I'm not a user of DCC and have yet to hear a decent steam loco sound from a model. (diesels aren't too bad,) But after half an hour or so of having my ear drums assailed I'd rather just hear the sounds of the model. Yes, you guessed it, I'm an oldie!

    I've been using a couple of these, and a micro torch for soldering for quite a while now. One thing you realise very quickly is that there is a superheated exhaust coming out of it when using the soldering tip.. as long as one is well aware of where that's going, and ensuring that it wont burn/ignite/melt anything important is very easy to use.

    I had one of these and it was troublesome from the word go. Mine would barely emit a wisp of steam and then the sound gave up all together. My ECoS controller would immediately short out when trying to read/write the decoder and DCC experts diagnosed this was due to the locomotive having two decoders fitted (one in the tender and the other for the steam generator). Finally, the locomotive stopped running. Hornby technical services were at a loss as to why it stopped working. It wouldn't respond to the HM7000 app either. My supplying dealer tested it on their DCC control systems (Gaugemaster Prodigy and NCE Powercab) and couldn't get it to respond to either controller - so I managed to get a full refund and back to Hornby it went.

      Yeap we have used water vapour diffusers with piezzo transducers for about 12 years or so on 5 inch gauge "diesels" (battery) models . They use small (well about 30mm ) fans to blow the vapour out, but certainly the amazing bit Hornby have done is scaling it down and getting it to chuff by controlling a tiny fan. Well done them. Shame they cannot offer a retro fit option for folks like me who bought the Prince of Wales P2 when it came out

All sounds a very strict and orderly, I don’t know if I’d fit in with that level of knowledge. Would be fun to actually see it all for myself though!

    Great work. I tend to prefer using cotton buds to take off excess water and then I roll the bud gently and lightly over the top of the decal to push out any excess water to prevent any bubbling/silvering. I am not a pro but I just love modelling within the limitations of my skills. I use Railtec Transfer and they are very easy to use for novice modellers and newcomers.
