Top class content excellent layout…
Another great video Oscar. Much preferred the Pullmans in their original blue livery but a nice model which along with your fantastic layout brings back many memories.
Thanks again Rob, The earlier version seems to be the most desired. The prototype must have been out of this world when it first rolled out the workshop in its day. Have you seen this British Transport Film its excellent? ruclips.net/video/djBDuPFI0X4/видео.html

That Pullman was my childhood dream I never got ! Great to see it on a period layout which brings back the memories of all the Triang literature etc . Greatly enjoyed the description and many thanks sharing your collection.Regards Richard
Its a fine looking model Richard. I was just replying to a comment from Peter Shaw saying how this blue and grey version of the Pullman is often over looked in favourer of the earlier Blue version. I think this blue and grey livery represents British Rails bold step forward in the late 60s early 70s to a very corporate modern look to the railway system and the optimism of the age. Oscar
wow what a nice surprise, well done oscar!!! i knew you had a lot of info on old triang train etc by your comments section. this channel will become the channel people will use to find out and add to info on triang/hornby and with yours and others info you will become the new triang expert another pat hammond. watching this video took on a whole new meaning for me and i watched it much more closely, once again well done.
Thank you Dolores. Oscar
A new twist to Oscar's videos - commentary. Absolutely loved it Oscar. You are the Tri-ang knowledge source and todays video makes me want to dig my Tri-ang stock out and look at it again. I did not know about the freightliner container changes and I had wondered about the blue vs. black container wagons. Love it, can't wait to see what you have to show us next week. Cheers, David.
Thanks David, as you see I'm a little late in replying to all comments. Its my intension to reply to all of them but time is always short. I remember some time ago you one of your videos you showed a large amount of you Tri-ang collection. It was terrific to see so much all at the same time. Especially as you have some Canadian / North American items which are always a pleasure to see. I was unsure about the blue and black bases myself on the container wagons. The Pat Hammond books have a huge amount of information on the entire Tri-ang range. But Its only when you start see these differences in models that you look these things up. I had bought a number of these and it was only looking at them together that I had noticed the change in the colour of wagon bases. Oscar
Thank you Oscar, After seeing this video I did get mine out. I have two black wagons and four blue ones along with quite a variety of containers. Cheers, David.
What a lovely triang layout very very nice with all the stock ,nice to see everything running as it should,what a lovely running session
Thanks Michael, its great to hear your enjoyed seeing the layout. Oscar
Hi Oscar ,got a tip ,I have one of these units it was a bit noisy the motor out of the body was sweet and almost quiet ,but body on sounded like a concrete mixer put foam in the body no joy I could hear a vibration in the end brain wave ,I replaced the washer on the motor bogie screw which connects it to the chassis with a rubber washer and added a weight in the gap between the seating and motor bulkhead it’s now 50% quieter ,but can be put back to original in seconds ,result ,all the best Mark
Good morning Mark sounds like a good solution thanks for the tip I shall looking it.
Take care.
Oscar
Excellent video. So great to hear the explanation as well as seeing the models running. Keep up the wonderful work!
Thank you Andrew I really appreciate the comment. Its great to hear enjoyed the video. Oscar
You are very right . I used to go to school on 108 dmus in similar livery to your Pullman and I remember it all seemed very modern and new age at the time !! Regards Richard
Great video! I really enjoy seeing the various Triang models on your layout.
Thank You. Oscar
Great to have some great information on these beautiful tri-ang trains regards Mark
Thank you Mark. Its great to hear others find these are things of beauty. Oscar
Oscar! that was brilliant! I really like that you are now speaking and describing things, very clear, very professional. Great stuff. By the way this is Mike from Mike'sMovies using my new model railway channel. Hope you can look in sometime. Cheers.
Hi Mike thanks for watching and the encouraging comments. I will be sure to look in on your new channel. Oscar
Thanks mate, need all the support I can just now :)
Brilliant . Love these videos Oscar. Inspired by them I got Samstrains to service and repair my AL1 . Now runs like she did back in 1966 . Hauling rake of electric blue grey coaches. Triang a Hornby were fantastic. Never knew about the container flats bring different colours. Mine were in the Junior Freightliner set with 0-6-0 diesel. They are blue.
Thats great to hear about your AL1 Russell. I bet that defiantly brought on a smile when you ran that with your electric blue grey's after Sam had worked his magic. Every one keeps say these toys were built to last! Oscar
Nice detailing in the Pullman coaches , great video and loved the commentary .
........Peter
Hi Peter, its often overlooked this model as every one always seem to like the first blue version with the Blue front end (c1963) which it has to be said was a stunning looking model for its time. Bachmann's recent version of the Blue Pullman is also stunning. Thanks for the positive comments. Oscar
Fantastic video. Really enjoyed the commentary and information, can you make more like this please.
Thank you Carl. Really glad you enjoyed the video. I've been playing around this format for some time and never really knowing if it works. There are several more almost finished. Provided I get the the time to continue producing them. I will make more. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. Oscar
Super video. Thanks for sharing. 20/- for a Pullman coach (£1 decimal) a huge amount of money in the day! I remember saving pocket money for a Buffet Coach at 18/6 (with twenty shillings in the pound it was much cheaper!).
Thanks Bobby, those were the days. Oscar
Great video, Is that the Tri-ang 4B HO layout?
Thank you redhotmelter. The layout is a bit made up as it went along. It started on a lose version of Track plan 9 in the 1976 Track plans book 4th edition. And evolved from there as my interest in the earlier Tri-ang period grow. Oscar
