  1. It says on the benefits page that the entire range is DCC ready.
  2. I think TT120 is more reminiscent of VHS than Betamax on the benefits page it says the entire range is DCC ready and is compatible with US and European stock. So it seems more compatible.
  3. Great pictures nice to see the close coupling
  4. I would like to see GWR Goliath 5239 and more great western stuff.
  5. I wonder if the locomotives come in a jeweled box like in N gauge or will they come in the ice block like their OO locomotives. Also just for fun not serious, what is the correct pronunciation for TT1/120, would it be like ‘tea tea gauge/scale’ or ‘double TT’ or just ‘Table Top’? just a thought
  6. Done it now. I’ve pre-ordered the easterner train set and track packs 2, 3, 4 and 5 looks like you get track pack 1 with the train set it says in the brochure not 100% sure but can be changed if Not. Also the discount worked for me not sure if they fixed it or it’s different for some others. I’m so excited this like being a pioneer of TT gauge. I have literally dreamt about this years ago a hornby train set I can fit on a table. So thank you Hornby for making my dreams come true. ps looks some of the locos are considerably cheaper than OO and even N gauge I did a camparison roughly with the class 8 and some steam locomotives.
  7. I must say this is very tempting as if was aimed at me. Which I gave up on model railways a few years back just by chance I looked at the Hornby website I always get the email news. I gave up due to space and expense being indecisive about scales but this might work I have the ideal table as the table was too small for the bigger layout. now I got my finances in order and 15% discount if you join the TT club which is free sounds like a good deal the locomotives are not as cheap as one would like but cheaper I need to be careful this time and choose just one locomotive. think I just stay at this scale but wish there was more Great Western stuff. im very impressed with the selection. I might just join the club for now.
  8. I saw it it was very interesting the way they engineer things isn’t it
  9. I have required the Gloucester City Pullman train set. The locomotive is well detailed for a supposedly railroad model and 2 of the coaches have names on them. Also it was a quick delivery so kudos to Hornby I'm very impressed. I have also bought some other stuff a decoder and a digitrack so I can turn it into DCC.
  10. @ 2e0dtoeric It's the railway equivalent to a caravan :-) Anyway I was just testing my 2nd raduis curves its all i got room for at the moment.
  11. /media/tinymce_upload/d313a3cb1a3266fcdcfddb3c871ed820.JPG/media/tinymce_upload/fb4c0d20d7f4bd610ab388c085e740e0.JPG I got a King Richard II for Christmas and I got a new DCC controller which I can change CV values and lower the volume.
  12. /media/tinymce_upload/a77eab781dfef4cea9d02007142049dd.JPG I got these in the sale apart from the Camping Coach. Good quality stuff I got them because of Simon Kohler's Blog and I've always liked Skaledale. Delivered today without Delay 10/10 would Skaledale again :-D Here's a photo not a great shot but the best one I've took
  13. /media/tinymce_upload/0041.JPG I could only take a few good pictures on good one of the cab though.
  14. I just received my J15 a gorgeous loco and two private wagons 'Coltness' and 'J.James & Co' and a decoder of course. I'm gonna try and put some pictures on here after I finished work.
  15. Key mapping? Using the keyboard so you can assign functions to your computer keyboard like the function keys. Not sure if you can already do this got to page 100 of the manual so far.
  16. Can you use the function keys on your PC keyboard I don't know if you can I only read up to page 70 in the manual but if you can't there's a thing for the wish list it would be very logical.
  17. I would like to see online/in game tutorials. RM seems a little complex for my tiny brain.
  18. I got the track maintainance vehicle r296 which isn't too bad plus an uncoupling thingy not too sure if you can use it with the Hornby foam underlay. Also got some scale lighting the strip thingy and some bulbs. Plus my e-link came yesterday.
  19. You have a post before @19.06 I can see it or did you post another post?
  20. Hi all, I got Track Master, Hornby track plans book which is good, track mat accessory #3 and the Hornby 2013 catalogue which I now have 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014. All I need now is trackpack accessory #1 then I will have all of them 1-5.
  21. I got some foam underlay for my track it really does reduce the noise. It looks good too.
  22. Hi all I got the Somerset Belle digital train set. The loco looks good anda very well detailed milk tank with NEM couplings. Need to set it up now. I just come back from N gauge which I was in love with but the detailing and fiddley brake pipes is just a bit too small for my eyes. Any I would of got an e-link train set but I have no laptop so I got this instead. I like all the literature you get with these trainsets. Cronan aka Ian
