    Your new layout is coming on nicely. The teak coaches could look a lot better by smearing coloured varnish on them then rub off any on glazing or text/numbers. I tried it with an old tin which unfortunately didn't have a label, It took just a few minutes per coach as I couldn't be bothered to remove the glazing and was delighted with the result. You can see the coaches on my Saltspring Railway RUclips vids. PS Your repair vids encouraged me to tackle my misbehaving engines with good results. Thanks. PPS 'No ox id' is a grease you apply very sparingly to clean track and wheels. Let it work its magic, bonding on a molecular level, then remove the excess. The trains run beautifully for months if not years!

    Absolutely love this channel.Rekindled my passion for renovating dead locos.Started with the Trix Mallard which was a gem of a video I would have been lost without it.Would love to see videos unedited videos as I'm sure we can all relate to the fruity language and the knocking things onto the floor,my latest craze is nutting myself on the rafters(I don't even react anymore).Looking forward to this years videos and hopefully some more Scots phrases.I love "jiggerry faffery".

    A newish subscriber, and I usually just watch and not comment.
    However, glad to hear that Mrs Bill is on the mend.
    Ligament damage...I can totally sympathise with you there.
    I had ruptured tendons in my right shoulder cuff, along with a long standing broken first right rib. Surgery has helped. I've got better movement, but no strength. Like your comments regarding putting up the shelving. I put a new latch on the back gate. I simply don't have the strength to drive the screws flush to the wood.....
    Looking forward to watching your videos in 2024, Thanks for all you've brought us this year 👍.
    Wishing you and Mrs Bill a happy and healthy 2024.

    Do like the faux pas' at the end. They show the human side of people.
    May I say a Happy New Year to you and I sincerely hope your wife makes a speedy recovery.
    Don't drink too much on Hogmanay, no more than a pint of the finest single malt, especially at 100 Scottish pounds per bottle.

    I can empathise with the affects of wear and tear caused by the ticking of time. I smacked my thumb against a wall, no break, it took months to heal. I invested in a good electric screwdriver as it was impossible to use a manual one.... Ho hum. All the best and a happy Hogmanay

    Hi Bill. I had exactly the same problem with my J27 and that certainly wasn't second hand as it had been on pre-order for about three years and arrived within a few days of the general release. Poor QC by Oxford Rail which was a shame because it is such a nice model at a very good price. Like you I repaired the offending pick ups and it runs very well. Great video as ever. All the best.

  • @charlie1872

  • @lesbird2074
    @lesbird2074 8 месяцев назад

    It's interesting hearing about your experience with Oxford Rail. My only Oxford locomotive is an ex-Great Eastern N7. It was fine when I first got it but it soon started to run badly and then stopped altogether. I took it apart and tested everything but could find nothing obvious and when I put it back together it ran, but not for long. This time when I checked everything, the motor refused to run. I had heard that obtaining spares from Oxford wasn't easy but looking on RMWeb suggested that a motor from Tramfabriek would be an ideal replacement. I ordered one which arrived very promptly and turned out to be very straightforward to fit. The locomotive now runs perfectly. It has certainly made me wary of buying any other Oxford locomotive.

    Hi, Bill,. I have watched a lot of your excellent videos (with built in sense of humour) which have been a great deal of help with my own locos. I have one request. Is it possible for you to specify the Manufacturers model number when you get theses locos for repair, assuming it's readily to hand.. Obviously the same model might have 2 or 3 different drive mechanisms over time and it would help me and maybe others to home in on those models we ourselves have and which need, or might need in future, some TLC. Thanks a lot.
