Well after my 5 week visit back to the UK, its nice to be home back in the sun, although leaving the UK it was -1 degrees and arriving in Perth at 36 degree's followed by two days at or near 40 !!! So I managed to get to two shows and collect a couple of models that had been ordered.So here are some of my new purchases. 1) Minerva models "Victory" fitted with Zimo sound using the latest modified Paul Chetter sound files. 2) three (actually four, but the brake van is in bits) Skytrex wagons at a knocked down price, not to bad, need some work doing to them 3) Two Limited Edition (50) open wagons 4) Tower Models Brass Pug....in black primer ready for sound to be installed (Zimo and a Paul Chetter sound file on its way over to me) Ordered this in 2012.........finally arrived...very pleased with her. Just started installing sound with a large base speaker.. Tower models / San Cheng Brass D127 3rd Brake coach, purchased from Larry Goddard who has painted, lined and installed extra chassis detailing and a full interior.... Kim
A good haul Kim well done with the shopping The new Minerva Victory looks very nice you will have to put up a video of it running so we can hear the new sound file
Thanks Toto,Chris yes, I will get on with the installs as soon as and then produce a little video of each. The pug will be a real challenge as there is no room what so ever inside the boiler to house the decoder.....it's a very small model and looks strange sat next to the Victory. Hi Ron, I've only communicated with him via emails and forums, but he's a very helpful Chappy and very knowledgeable with Zimo decoders. Most of my old oo gauge stock was fitted with his sound files. Ian thanks for that lingering thought
