Chapel House Model Railway- Heljan Turntable Trouble!-
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 12 сен 2024
- July 2021 update at Chapel House Model Railway. Mike explains about the Heljan turntable that was fitted and trial operation, and difficulties getting the turntable to work. Then a complete replacement was sourced for a second attempt.
'Im going to start some ballasting' (gulp!!). A bit of a tip, do follow their advice re keeping it covered when not in use and vacuum it regularly as any dust and small particles that get into the rack and pinion in the base will soon permanently defeat the mechanism with disasterously expensive consequences. Mininiscule bacteria defeating the mighty Martians in H.G.Wells 'War of the Worlds' is an apt analogy. Good video (yours) and all the best with your developing layout.
Hi Rob,
Thank you for your comments. Previous experience with ballast is not an issue as I have done loads of it on a previous layout. But the Heljan turntable will be treated with great respect, now that I have finally got one that works!
Regards. Mike
Nice .Track down looking forward to the rest.
Thank you. More video updates soon.Apologies for late reply to your comment.
@@chapelhousemodelrailway1700 No worries Mike and Thank you very much for replying to my comment. I would love if you could take a quick look at my page and any feedback would be greatly appreciated.I have a new video out now.Hope you like and share.
Hi just come across your channel so I subscribed great video look forward to seeing some more updates
Thanks Mark, I try to put up a video every six weeks or so. dependent on how much time I have to spend on it. Not very good with the editing thing, so some times they are 'rough and ready'
@@chapelhousemodelrailway1700 that’s no problem something to look forward to, yeah I know all to well about editing not my strong point takes just as much time as running trains lol
That is such a great shame, having to buy two turntables to get one working. Still it now works fine and does look very good.
Yes, it was a bit of a blow, but all working great now!
