    Watch your lighting? The DETAIL on what you are working on is not visible because the workspace is so poorly lit. Heck, you're shooting into the window light behind you which is the exact opposite of what you want to make good video.

    Hi Mark. Lovely little video, thank you for sharing. Fun personal fact. JINTY was how my little sister used to spell Giant when she was very young 🙃Can't you tell that she was born into a steam enthusiasts family! lol 😆 Nice little DCC conversion. I am considering swapping to DCC as i build Pwll - Y - Ddraig but I can't decide the pros and cons balance. I like the idea of actually driving the loco, being able to double head, sound etc. But I was raised with DC, DCC is expensive (although the basics becoming cheaper i believe) and the cost for sound is horrendous. Which system do you use on your layout? Have you ever regretted going down that route and what advice do you have for someone thinking of starting a DCC railway? Thanks Mark and happy modelling

    Like a lot of videos "for beginners", this one assumes existing knowledge. For example, no explanation is given of what a bus wire does or what its purpose is. Nor is there any demonstration of the installation of bus wires. We go straight from the droppers being in place to the bus wire having been installed (1.36).

    • @DonegalDadRail
      @DonegalDadRail 20 дней назад

      Thanks for the feedback. This is a series of videos if you watch from the beginning you will see how the droppers are fitted. ruclips.net/video/MCD9GZPoUEg/видео.htmlsi=Y5ywk3TvIIIouZQ9 It is always hard to know what to put into a video without making it hours long.
