      Jim if only that were true my good friend. Once the new windows go in on the 15th I'll feel much closer as i can get the wall plastered and then the floor. Still have to pay for all this too haha think I needed two visits from Santa one at the end of Jan too haha.

    Have enjoyed following your videos. Im a confirmed "tail - chaser" , but am now seriously considering getting into weathering. Your Br 44 is amazing. Also good to listen to your opinions on digital functions, something that is out of reach ,as too much analogue stock collected thro the 70s, heavy all metal die cast Arnold stuff . Look forward to future videos, and perhaps your thinking regarding weathering fleischmann track. All the best.

      Hey thanks for taking the time to right you thoughts and feedback, much appreciate indeed. Oh the 70’s they were good times. Weathering track is something I will be doing once I start my layout in the near future. I will look at weathering it at some point, just will be in the future as I not finished my dinning room although plasters just finished need to decorate it then have a floor fitted and ill be good to go. I feel it will be back end of the year as I have just had my double glazing replaced so big investment which is biting away at my savings. Im busy weathering at the moment just doing some Arnold beer hoppers and sone kore tankers. Thats going to keep me busy right up April Im sure. Then I’m hoping to visit the Dortmund model show and then we will be into the start of summer. Ive just bought around 10 new locos in the past three months with a few mote wagons so will be doing some videos on them. Also just dropped a small track down to start doing that so will have to see where that leads me. Have a great weekend and thanks again for making the effort always good to get feedback and nudge folks to try something new. Im intrigued to know how much stock you ha e and what era your modelling too. All the best.

      Well good luck with all the renovation work. That Dortmund model show should be pretty good, if I'm not mistaken you bought that track cleaning wagon there. I've got about 40 odd locos, back in the day I could only afford 2nd hand , Arnold had the advantage of being more robust than Trix and Fleischmann, plus phenomenal haulage with those metal mostly Era 3 or 4 , with some era 2 wagons because they look so good with brakeman's cabins. Big thumbs up to any Br 18s too plus the odd rod-driven electric. I'm in process of removing tarnish from a load of 45 year old set track. Not easy as most solvents don't like traction tyres ,but I'm tempted to use 800- 2000 grit sand paper, followed by the much hyped No-Ox-Id A anti-oxidation treatment. Forgot to add how good some of the recent Brawa wagons are. All the best.

      @@jedi1538 Thanks again for posting my friend. Ive just ordered some Brawa sound emu’s twindexx Vario’s in DB white ICE style and another version in NAH.SH too. But they wont be available until later in the year sadly. Also having had the plastering done my whole front room is very dusty and damp. So until that dries no electric trains running it hmm horrid. As for that track cleaner I did buy it at the Dortmund show and might see if I can get a few more they really good easy to change the pads. I used to run them behind a loco. But now I use my hand and press down for better results works a treat. Well until next time have a great weekend. Also does not matter how old your stock is as long as you still getting enjoyment from it that's all that counts right?

    How about a video tutorial on how you do your weathering?

      @ngauging  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Hi kite, like I mentioned below am about to order a new Harder & Steenbeck airbrush as mine has stopped working correctly and it comes from Germany so not sure when I will get one this side of Christmas so sadly not going to be able to do a video. I also suck at video editing hence why I do not do them. You can see from this video I did not long ago using powders th-cam.com/video/Odnvn3Cu5x0/w-d-xo.html The loco you like took me 9 days to weather due to the paint I used a combo of both oil and acrylic and weathering powders to do this. Hope you understand and that I am not just trying to fob you off it's just difficult for me to make videos I suck lol.

      @@ngauging yeah. I recognised the voice and heard your comments about Fleischmann. I’ve had a few items I’ve had to send back myself. The latest was a BR218 with sound that simply stopped running. The sound was working but nothing happened. Happily it’s been returned repaired.
      Also had problems with Hobbytrain. A couple of locos’ sound simply stopped working. Both were replaced FOC.
      All very rare in my experience of purchasing over 100 locos - I should get out more 😂😂
