CHILDHOOD NOSTALGIA: Restoring one of my earliest locomotives - the Hornby Colmans 0-4-0
มุมมอง 128วันที่ผ่านมา
Here, I restore one of my oldest and most cherished locomotives. It is a Hornby 0-4-0 in Colmans mustard livery. It was a present to me from my late grandfather, and I got it in the late 1990s, as a child. This video chronicles fixing a refurbished motor, sorting out wheel quartering issues, a clean-up, and some cosmetic enhancements. Intro and outro music: Mehroon Wahab @mehroonwahab Logo desi...

Let's have a look at the Hornby HM6000 (R7292) App-Based Analog Control system for model trains. I first toyed with the idea of buying this when it came out around 2021. However, the idea took a backseat as I got myself a pair of Gaugemaster Combi units. But, I remained curious, and took the plunge this year. So, was it a worthwhile plunge to take?

Hot Wheels Audi RS E Tron GT Unboxing and Review
Ashraaq you have something special there with the Colmans locomotive i have looked at many train sets but Never a Colmans locomotive. very interesting ✔✔😃😃
Yeah it's quite a rare find. Hornby only made it in 1984 and 1985 as part of the Pick-Up Goods set. they never sold it separately. Thanks to my granddad finding it second-hand in the late 1990s that I got my hands on it. Really glad that I was able to get it back up and running.
I think adding two tyre weights at the ends of that coach will give better traction. Being a small coach, it seems pretty light.
I've added tyre weights beneath it, albeit at the center because there isn't enough room to fit them between the axles. Also the coach has no interior so if I install them inside, they'll be visible through the clear windows. In fact that's another gripe of mine about this coach. Must find a second-hand coach with a damaged bodyshell that I can cannibalize for an interior.
Ashraaq, NMRA has a metal plate called a track guage it's very accurate. if you can get one from an overseas hobby shop.
This is a good idea! Shall check it out
I went back in time; I have this Nikon since its release, but I didn't enjoy it fully, iphone took over. Now I need it to film with multiple angles, but I'm a little old, can't understand what I see when I put the video in the timeline. Do you have a video on how to edit videos captured with the Nikon P100? Thank you!
Sadly I don't have a video on editing videos. I use Da Vinci Resolve for my videos, but I've found Microsoft Clipchamp to also be quite useful. Since the P100 outputs video files in regular .MOV format, you can use it with ClipChamp.
That's the issue, the MOV format, I didn't know how to call it. Thank you so much, it helps me a lot since I already have ClimpChamp installed. I appreciate you.
@@floralheart you're welcome! Wish you the very best of luck with your videos!
Wonderful review 😊😊
Thank you so much!
Yeah. that's superb -😎
Very nice 👌🏻 Whats the price of the watch ?
Congratulations on the acquisition! Nice video and nice shirt too 😁
Haha, thanks! A very useful shirt to wear around the house :P
I like srilanka diecast train eg class m2 569ontario 570 Alberta 572British Columbia 573Quebec and 626 montreal and 627 Vancouver and m4 m5 m6 m8 m9 m10 and class s1 to s14
What is the difference between Ca 4500 and ca 4559 ? Is the latter a newer model of the former ?
To be honest I'm not quite sure. Some Googling shows that the 4500 has the pulsation bezel, while the 4559 seems to have a compass bezel. Otherwise they look pretty similar to me. Perhaps this is the main difference. I could be wrong, though.
I use the 20 Ohm range and get 11.6 but varies from model to model can be a few ohms higher or lower as long as all three or five readings are basically the same
How is the magnet may need a remag
Probably. The model is at definitely over 30 years old. Must see if anyone in Sri Lanka has a remagnetizer...
Checking a motor would you not use use the Ohms range, not continuity setting those motors should not be showing 40 ohms resistance most motor windings resistance is around 11.3 ohms in my experience
For some meters, yes. However funnily enough, my digital meter shows the resistance readout in continuity mode so I've been using that. Just went and checked it again with a 1K resistor to verify (in continuity mode) and it showed 997 ohms. On that token, I guess the 40 ohms for the motor should be reasonably accurate - but given that it's significantly above what should be expected, I need to do some diagnosis on the model. I've always noticed that it runs well, but needs a fair bit of "throttle" - usually around 70% minimum on my Gaugemaster. Perhaps this is the reason, do you think?
Great informative review as always!
Thanks! Stay tuned for more watch reviews in the future
🤓💥
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it
Interesting and well explained.
Hi, lovely locomotive. Glad you got three more coaches for the original rake of three coaches
Thanks so much! Yes it's indeed a very pleasant runner, especially at the slower speeds that make model railroading far more reflective of the real thing. Really enjoy running it on my layout, especially with the full six-coach rake in all its glory. The added crew also brings a sense of interest. Must install some passengers within the coaches in due course.
Fun Fact : its pronounced Alpeen (the french pronounce ''I'' as ''E'') , you'd see this confusion in many reviews ,including James May pronouncing it as 'Alpine', this is similar to the misleading 'Porsche' pronunciation.
Very true! I checked it out after your comment. Gives me inspiration for a future video on correct prounounciation of popular automotive brands and nameplates. Thanks!
Great review! Personal insight also long term reigns supreme! Well done!
Thanks so much! Yes, long term personal insight really helps identify the pros and cons of a watch, especially as the initial rose-tinted glasses tend to wear off.
Very good, thank you.
Thanks! Glad you found it useful
Excellent presentation. A simple but accurate way to overcome a derailment that's happening because one set of wheels does not sit on the track rail within the standard width.
Thanks for your kind words. I really appreciate your support from the inception of my channel.
Nice video. You may want to invest in some form of tripod or something like that for your camera as the "jerkiness" makes it hard to see what is really going on. :) They also make "standard" gauges for almost any scale that allows you to check wheel gage, track gage, coupler height, etc.
Thanks David. I have a proper camera tripod but the restricted space within my layout's central well (since it's a 6x7 with a central well) makes it hard to deploy fully. I should look into a monopod which will take much less space.
Hi, great review! I think Metcalfe buildings look better, but this pack seems very good for an easy start of the decoration of the layout!
Thanks! Yeah they are pretty good for a starter effort but nothing more advanced. I've already got some of the stickered walls peeling off on the goods shed - will do a short about this! Must check out Metcalfe, and try to get some down to Sri Lanka.
@@ashraaqwahabI hope the stickers can be fixed again with some glue.
@@railway187 I must try this and see. Should be OK with some white craft glue, which is what I use for ballasting (when mixed with a 50-50 mix of water and a few drops of dish wash soap).
I remember the Great train robbery, Cl40 pulling the Night mail train.
Nice! Wonder if any model rail maker made a set for this.
Hi I looked at the video again. I forgot to ask what kind of motor dies it have. It appears to be a 5 pole motor as it moved very slowly. Excellent buy.
Hi yeah it's an amazing slow-speed runner. Specs show it to have a 5-pole skew-wound motor (source: www.hattons.co.uk/directory/versiondetails/1187/hornby_oo_class_92?instock=true&onorder=true&soldout=true).
I know nothing about watches. But you just convinced me to get into the game. As always a very good and informative video
Thanks Thilina! Glad you enjoyed the video. Will gladly help you get into the game, just that your wallet won't like me :P

That's a cute one. I like it
Thank you! 😊
Hi Ashraaq, I was interested in the wiring of the LED and Resistors on the strip board. So my question. Is the board isolated between the holes. Is it possible for a close up of the strip board rear for me to see. I have a few strip boards and found it ideal, after watching your video, to use a piece of strip board. Thanks once again for your review.
Thanks! I'll send you a photo of the strip board I use. The rows of holes are connected in a strip of copper, with isolation between the adjacent rows. So, if you were to place an LED with the positive leg in one row and the negative leg in another row, it will work when you apply power in one direction. Then, when you attach another LED in the opposite direction, that one will light up when you reverse the polarity of the power supply. It is also possible to buy a form of board where each hole is totally isolated, with only a ring of copper surrounding it, to aid soldering. This board allows you to totally make your own connections vertically, horizontally, and diagonally, with solder bridges and bridge wires, but for this application, it's a bit overkill.
@@ashraaqwahab Thank You.
Thank you for this video, it was very helpful
You're welcome! Glad you found it useful. I'll do more of these "Inside A Model Train" videos in the future too.
Thank you for this video I just bought one off of eBay for my first real photography camera to learn photography. I cannot afford to pay $1000 for a camera kit and then another $600 or so on a lense right now. But those photos are still really good for it’s time and still take great photos
Glad you enjoyed the video, and you will enjoy your new camera too. A few things, firstly get it serviced at an authorized Nikon centre (or competent camera shop). Then, consider replacing the battery as it's definitely past its prime. But after that, the camera is good to go.
Interesting review.
Thanks!
Yes, Metal wheels are more jumpy than Plastic.
Indeed. Weighting the bogies does help a bit
Thankyou will be buying the twin shortly, Well presented.
My pleasure, Tony! Hope you enjoy it. So far, mine are working a treat and I find the rolling stock seems to be 'happier' as well - no untoward hums or signs of distress.
@@ashraaqwahabNice to know take care.
Fantastic review! I'm getting back into the hobby after forty or so years. I'm salvaging what I can from our old family 00-gauge layout to build a continuous run layout and a shelf layout for my Dad. I need new analogue controllers and, after watching this, I've found the one I'm looking for. Thank you once again for your help. Happy modeling, my friend!
That's great! Wish you all the best with your layout, and Gaugemaster controls won't let you down. Glad you found my review useful, and looking forward to seeing your new layouts.
Did you ever figure out how to connect the trailer to the cab? It should just be a "pin" that sits in a "hole" sized to receive it. You are correct in that those folding wheels are for when the trailer is not connected to the cab and they should be retraced (folded up) when it is connected.
Yeah I did. There's a pin and two openings, but the whole thing is so loose and uncertain that you can't even be sure if it's fitted correctly. Even if you lift it up, you've got to hold the cab and trailer in each hand, or else they just slip out. And if you try pushing it along a level surface, they sometimes disconnect. Strictly a static model, this one.
I dont know if the seller riped u off, coz its Rs.3,199 on flipkart
Yeah thats Indian Rupees. I live in Sri Lanka and bought this in Sri Lankan Rupees, which, at the time of purchase, was around 4 LKR to 1 INR. Now the rate has dropped to approx. 3.7 LKR to 1 INR
@@ashraaqwahab ahh, ok
its 1999 on flipkart now and i bought it, was looking for temporary alternatives to steel series apex 7
Does it support multipoint connection
No it doesn't appear to support that for multiple phones. However it claims that you can connect multiple Anker speakers to the same phone when the Soundcore app is installed.

Must check my Wifi ADSL frequency with the wire kess mouse i am using. I learnt tat from your video. Thanks.
Thanks! It's indeed a weird thing, and annoyingly, happens when you're using a lot of bandwidth. So you could be watching a video and find the mouse lagging. Then, you'll find it normally working during regular web browsing that doesn't use much bandwidth. Of course, none of this with a wired mouse, or one that doesn't operate on a frequency that's too close to your WiFi's frequency.
Very informative
Thanks!

Hi Ashraaq, This is from 1979 ish (you can find dates for models by entering R352 to the hornby railways collector guide) From what you've said I would have used some spirits (lighter fluid) to clean the commutator and the slots. Also lubricating the two ends of the armature shaft. Not too much as the oil dripping down onto the contacts will make a horrible burning smell. Ringfields generally can't lose magnetism as the ring magnet acts as its own keep. 99% of the time they can be rescued, so if you want to fully strip down the motor and have a go at restoring it yourself, go to @00Bill His videos will really help. I have begun to really dislike the abundance of the CD motor. As a beginner I did this and is has not got the power of original ringfields. I have one of these as original which i thoroughly cleaned and it pulled 16 coaches with no real issues!! I would recommend grease on the gears. New brushes too as the old ones can become easily worn and fill the slots in the commutator, shorting and overheating the armature. The gear noise can be solved by removing any flash on gears too. I hope this helps, perhaps you might refit the old motor? If you polish up the contacts it will be a great runner! Best wishes from England Will
