Hi NIgel enjoy your video but how do you get the red light on the dummy train?

Hi, very nice loco, lovely colour, I guess it’s like marmite love it or hate it, I love mine even though it doesn’t have a driver onboard, thanks for sharing.

❤

Watch this video playing it very well. I’m going to try it myself you made it look easy I hope I find it that way ARB Bernie

Bonjour, mais il semble que vous avez connecté la LED avant et la LED rouge arrière sur la même résistance sur le fil bleu, pourriez-vous me le confirmer. Merci d’avance. Hello, but it seems that you connected the front LED and the rear red LED on the same resistance on the blue wire, could you confirm it for me. Thank you in advance.

Nice job Nigel I'll probably do the same on my Lima intercity swallow HST convert from DC to DCC

Wonderful views of the back or you hand, should have had the camera on the other side in front of you facing the job

How can I buy this scaled model of warship class locomotive, Iam from India????

Hi Nigel I have just returned to modelling and have watched your video over and over as I am very new to converting to DCC One thing I cannot get my head round is the second rail wire. I think you used the wire with the small diode on it on my 125 this wire the left front light connector pin which pushes in to a hole in plastic My question is where does it get its power from I hope you are still able to answer my query or amI just being thick and missing the obvious. Great video and this my first attempt so don’t want to get it wrong Stuart Forbes

Nice work, love a good HST conversion! Subbed!

hi there Nigel I'm thinking of delving into the wonderful world of dcc and this video helped enormously, but i'm a bit overwhelmed by the amount of dcc chips and functions can you suggest a nice simple chip to install (like the one you used),I 'm not to worried about having loads of functions just the forward/reverse,and lights as in your video would do to start with.again thanks for the tutorial.liked and subbed.

Hi Nigel. I've just purchased this loco, my first DCC ready so your video will help me install a decoder. 🚂🚃

Would it not have been prudent to paint the interior to prototype interior and upholstery colours and populate both cars with driver and passengers whilst it was apart?

Hi, greetings from Brazil!! Is that possible convert my 1978 vintage Hornby R.845 LNER Loco Flying Scotsman to DCC Operation too?

Thanks, i will try to use this guide on one of ours, Any idea how to get the dummy car directional lighting to work?

Thank you Nigel for your reply.

Nigel very informative video on this conversion, I followed all your instructions until connecting the lights. Can you say what colour wire from the chip did you connect to? Many thanks . Frank Hughes

Good Evans,nice loco

Great video very informative Also subbed your channel

Excellent video, I have been looking for one that shows every step for doing this and at last I found your one which is very methodical and makes it look straightforward, my only niggle is you didn't show how you did the lighting and what you used to add the extra red light, I'm sure I can find that somewhere on the old internet, thanks for making this video as I have 4 hst sets to do, I just hope the lima and hornby wiring are similar on these once I open them up, electrics have never been my strong point. Bri.

Hi Nigel, Great job on the 125 conversion, I have a couple of these to do myself and it will be my first attempt at changing to DCC. Can you advise what resistors you used and if possible any more info on getting the directional lighting to work. I can see the wiring but not clearly enough in the video. Any help would be appreciated.

Greetings Nige.... having just bought one of these thought I would try to find a "how to", great to see the use of proper solder good old RS. Thanks for the info and thanks for sharing... it looks a challenge.....cheers...steve

You need the micro Zen for those transverse Bachmann 8 pin sockets! Just a few $$ more

Cool. You made me think of using a metal match box can on a track as another alternative.

Has anyone tried to fit sound to one of these? Is there room?

thank you great video really informative it will help me a lot

You should not really test it on a carpet as it may catch the Fluff on the carpet and cause it to jam the gears.

brilliant

I have the Bachmann 105 DMU which I had my local Model shop fit the chips. Although I have chipped loads of locos, split frames, tender drives, etc., the 105 scared me off. I can see I was right.

I would hate to fit sound to that. You would think Bachmann would make it easier to fit.

Thanks for making this, looking to convert my exact same loco, albeit I'm planning on fitting a small sliding switch somewhere to switch the input power between the chip and the motor, to allow me to still use the loco on my club's DC circuit.

you did right with the varnish theory however clear laquer should have been used, people tend to forget trains in real life have gloss paint not matt, the only thing that should be matt is the weathering. also when soldering you need to make sure you have a good mechanical connection by "j" hooking the wires together, never rely on just touching the iron to two wires

Great footage ,,, you look to have a smashing layout there ,,,lovely slow running ,,, im impressed ,,,, many thanks for subscribing as well ,,,, (do you know to get update you have to click on the cog wheel next to the subscribe banner its been catching a few out )

thank you been trying to find a tutorial on this very train

Nice bit of shunting, good smooth running too. Ian

Nice Loco's.. looking forward to your next upload... Cheers Crossie

Looking good nice running and great sounds cheers Kevin

Nice running session, thanks for sharing, looking forward to seeing more of the layout. Cheers, Dan

Looks and sounds very good, look forward to seeing more of this layout. Ian
