My layout bigest loop isnt long enough to hang very many coaches on, nor have I that much stock in the first place.

Sorry - non combatant for this event, but if you are serious at this hauling game then go look at some of the long trains regularly seen on NMRA facebook page where the Yanks consist H0 trains that must be scale close to prototype miles of length/rolling stock numbers and also run them up severe grades and around mega-spiral helixes.

Years ago on my old layout in the attic which had a circuit about 10X10 ft which gave a track length of about 40 ft, I attached all the rolling stock I could to a Wrenn Castle class loco. The coupling of the last wagon was about 1 inch away from the front of the loco, so I reckon about 39ft of coaches and wagons. No gradients.

Great video.  😀

 

What was with that intro of Smokey Joe and an open wagon running to an end of piece of track and then falling off? Was this done on purpose? I hope those models didn't get damaged.

Thank you - It's my new intro that I add to every vid that I now make - it is suppose to repersent all my different types of vids that I do - i.e. Smokey Joe repersent any train vids (either model or real life) the 3D printer repersents itself - the GoPro - the filming I do - The Drinks bottle - bike rides - the idea was suppose to be more spectactular in my head that was was suppose to happen - b/c I wanted it to look like if every thing I done on my channel exploded out of my 3D Printer as it 3D Prints!!! but i didn't work as well as I thout iot out in my Head :(    & yes it was done on purpose & don't worry Smokey Joe landed on a very big soft cussion :) so that nothing would get damage!!!

Hiya :)

I wanted to say when I was in Norway "hello & say I am here & your not!!!" but I couldn't b/c I couldn't remember my pass word!!! arrrrrrrrrrrrr

Any whooo I not normally interested in Diesels or Electric Trains - more of a Steam Engine fan but saying that - I was really impressed with the Norwegian Electric Trains - cos on the side they have large Full Colour Photos of beautiful Landscapes on the sdides of their Loco's - Check out my YouTube Channel to see what I mean, also I'll post a few photos with this topic so you can see what I mean :)

More Vids & photos to come on my Channel over the next few days...

C'mon lads & lasses,

 

Let's all get behind Jimyjames and support him and his channel.

 

The guy really puts in the effort & he is a valued member of our community here at the Hornby forum.

 

In no way does he deserve the shellacking he has copped or the lack of support.

 

Maybe some others here with all their experience and knowledge could contribute to his videos in some way too ?

 

Something fantastic could grow from his channel and it supports Hornby too.

 

We should support our own. What do you say ?

 

Kev.
