Good morning Oscar, it's Martin from Hull in the East Riding of Yorkshire. I hope you are ok today. I am a bit late up today which is unusual for me. But I've just watched your splendid video Oscar, it was great to see the Flying Scotsman and her teak coaches gliding along the tracks, just perfection in motion. The three car dmu has a great sound as she runs around the layout. And also I love the stations and their buildings especially the little green book stall. All in all, you have a wonderful layout Oscar. Well I am going to have my tea and toasted tea cake now and watch your video again Oscar. So keep safe and have a good week ahead and I shall look forward to seeing your next video. 👍🚂🚃
Good morning, Martin, I'm a bit late getting around to the replies this week. Glad you enjoyed the video on Sunday morning. Those little green newspaper stands and lovely little things. There is a variation with railway modeller advertised on the front of it..
All the best
Oscar
Hello Oscar, I've recently bought another black princess together with the transcontinental pacific for £30 the pair at a local antique centre. The princess just needed new brushes and a service whist the other needs the brush holder fibreboard and brushes. Both models have mk2 couplings. I've been building a small layout using series 3 track and wondered what you use to clean up the fishplate contact area? The rails came up well with a Peco rubber, and I've tried a fibreglass pencil on the fishplates, but I'm still losing power over a certain section. Any tips would be appreciated.
Hi, sounds like some great find it mate is items provide a lot of fun and getting them up and running. I've dismantled most of my series 3 track scotch-Brite pads, quite nice for cleaning up the rails, finishing off the rail head with a Peco track rubber is good tweaking fish plates with pliers improves things also cleaning them with the glass fibre pen as you suggested are use a rotary tool with a bronze brush to clean up fish plates and ends of rails as well. I've also soldered the fish plates rails I'm almost all the Tri-ang track on the current railway. If you have a look at this video of covered some of these aspects within it ruclips.net/video/l4X6yPeeNMk/видео.html
Hope this is of some help.

Waking up to another running from the king of Tri-ang :)
A great running session again Oscar lovely to see a early Princess Elizabeth and flying Scotsman.👍👍
Thank you, glad you enjoyed that.
Oscar
That looks great.
Another great session, having fun with the trains.. What more could you want for Christmas?
Good evening thanks again for looking in. Glad you enjoyed the running.
All the best.
Oscar
It could have been worse Oz, painted "weathering", natural aging every time. Another good session👏👏👍👍
Hi Oscar ,you filmed this on Christmas Eve can’t believe it was nearly 2 months ago already ,like the way your locos and units always run well
All the best
Mark 😊😊
Good morning Mark, amazing how time flies! And still haven't got the points switches and indicators wired up how want them. glad you enjoyed the video. Take care.
Oscar
Wonderful again Oscar, I own an tri-ang hornby LMS livery, probably 1971 vintage..
A good video this morning Oscar, even though play worn that green princess looked great running with those coaches, keep up the great work.
Thank you David I think it makes a lovely set this group of models, irrespective of condition and are great fun to run.
Oscar
Wow some of your camera work makes me feel dizzy......😖😳
Good morning to you Oscar from Glasgow another great video from you Sir
Morning Cameron, thanks again glad to hear enjoyed it.
Oscar
Lovely running session to start Sunday with Oscar. Princess Elizabeth with blood and custard coaches was my first train set in the 50s and sits proudly on my current layout. Thanks for sharing. Roy.
Good morning Roy, thank you again for looking in. Great to hear you still have your original princess and coaches.
Take care.
Oscar
Great session again Oscar, i have my layout on Peco track in the loft, most of my Triang runs okay some bottoms out but as you say its always fun fun fun, thanks for sharing, Ktf J
Good morning John, thanks for watching great to hear you have a layout in the loft. Definitely good fun running these old items.
All the best.
Oscar
A very good morning Oscar, the Princess Elizabeth train with the Custard and cream coaches really does look the part. Can you imagine getting this as a 10 or 11yr old you'd be so proud. Nice running session again today, as you said, this is what it's all about is having fun and playing trains. Thanks Oscar take care Eddy xx
Morning Eddy, thanks for looking in. Glad you enjoyed the playtime on the railway, would've been such a great experience getting these as a 10 or 11 year old though not sure what children of that age would make that set today. My son now 18 was only interested for a very short period of time at that age, others of his age at the time were sadly not remotely interested.
All the best.
Oscar
That really was a great Sunday morning video. I love how you see the beauty in these models that most of us would consider shabby. I wonder what you would have to say about my first Princess, a black one from the same time period as your green one. I thought the sound of the DMU was as good as modern DCC sounds, I loved it. There's nothing like playing trains on Christmas eve with thoughts of what the morning might bring. Your clean up has got me thinking that I should spend some time doing exactly the same. David.
Hi David, another busy week here. Glad you enjoyed the video on Sunday morning. The DMU great sound on the rails. Video was made sometime ago now getting on for mid February and time for another cleanup! just getting around cleaning another set of Pullman coaches which I've been putting off for weeks now.
Thanks again take care.
Oscar
where is Barrie Davis ?
WOW Oscar & I thought I kept a lot of boxes!!! That's the 1 down side to Railway Modelling - You have to keep the boxes that the Locos, Rolling Stock, Track etc came in - to keep the value of the items!!! Thanks for sharing 🙂🚂🚂🚂
You're right boxes do take up some space! but they're all part of the collection in the end, I think it's also better to try and keep the original packaging out of the light where practical.
All the best.
Oscar
Hey Oscar, love the content. Love watching, and learning from your research. Infact I have bought a few locos after watching you run them and giving us an honest opinion on them. Thanks for that. Quick question, do you intend on adding static grass, ballast or any form of detail to your layout? I was just wondering. Apologies if someone has already asked.
Hi, thanks for watching glad you've been enjoying videos and having fun acquiring some of these older items yourself. I tend to stay away from the scenic element of model railways. I had a play around with landscaping and weathering as a child many years ago, since coming back to playing around with model railways about 10 years ago its all been about the track and the items in the range for me.
Oscar
Morning Oscar ,another excellent video to start Sunday .its great just to watch your locos & stock running ,always makes my day ,oh those memories .Will the new ones last as long ,at least you can pick these up without bits falling off .😊
Hi, thank you Steven. Great to hear enjoying watching these videos. You may have a point about model locomotives currently available.
All the best.
Oscar
Thanks Oscar, nice to see the green Princess, I may have mentioned I was given a body, chassis and tender years ago and I've managed to fully restore it, which is the beauty of the modular nature of these loco's, they just need a little work and you can bring them back to life, which is half the fun of it.
Good morning Paul, thank you again for looking in, great to hear you had fun restoring your princess.
All the best.
Oscar
Good running session, as always. Signals would be a wonderful addition. Could we have some more eye-level shots?
Hi Roderic, looking forward to installing some signals. Next weeks video has so much lower level views which I hope you will enjoy.
All the best.
Oscar
Is the Morley flashing light a thing to do with the camera or is meant to do that? Hopefully you got something railway related for Christmas Oscar!
Hi Graham, that particular LED does not flash to the eye, it's only picked up on camera.
Thanks again for taking the time to watch.
Oscar
Thanx a lot! Love all your soo relaxing videos! Keep on! 😀🚂🚃🚃🚃
Hi, thanks for watching and the kind words.
All the best.
Oscar
New account subscription. Well done Oscar!
Hi, thanks for watching and taking the time to subscribe. Hope you continue to enjoy the channel.
Take care.
Oscar
Another great video. My 3rd locomotive was the green princess (a CKD kit I think); my father would have built it as I would have 3.. Do you intend controlling the signals based on points position or separately?
Hi, great to hear about the CKD kit. I'm thinking, predominantly the signals that will be linked with the points.
Take care.
Oscar
That's how mine operate mainly and also by turning red after a train passes, going back to green after a period. Initially, this was just done with microswitches and bistable relays but now is controlled with an Arduino MEGA which gives greater flexibility over how it all works together. Best wishes, Tom@@oscarpaisley
Hi Oscar, that Princess is a wonderful loco isn't it ? I prefer those with the full valve gear, much more interesting to watch! Its nice to have an old faithfull loco like that, bringing back those memories of Tynemouth market with your son every time you run it.
Looking forward to watching the signalling develop, and noting how all they're wired up.
Thanks Oscar, take care.
Morning Antony, thanks again for looking in. Sadly the stall that used to have model railway items has vanished from the market, a few years back now.. I use to enjoyed a visit and a rummage around on the Stall, all sorts of useful bits and pieces could be found.
All the best.
Oscar
@@oscarpaisley Oh, it's a shame the stall has gone Oscar, it's a lovely place Tynemouth isn't it? My wife and I spent a day there when on holiday in Northumberland a few years ago.
There used to be a similar stall to the one you describe on Chesterfield's Thursday market, again sadly no longer there. I bought a lovely boxed Triang Hornby R759 Albert Hall with R760 tender from it. Happy days eh?
Princess Elizabeth looks great. My first ever loco - at 2 months of age - was a Triang Princess Royal, which I still have. Like a favourite teddy bear, it is a little shabby but well loved!
Hi Oscar,
Great play session and Princess Elizabeth, always a lot of enjoyment to be had from play worn items. Whilst watching, a voice in the background said “you should take leaf out of Oscar’s book and tidy up the shambles upstairs”, so thanks for that 😂. Seriously though it is good to be in a tidy environment.
Keep up the good work,
Gordon
Good morning Gordon, great that you enjoyed seeing the Princess Elizabeth have a run around the railway. It always seems like a good idea to tidy up on another day...
All the best
Oscar
