Nick Dunhill’s workshop building a SECR P class from the Alpha Graphics Kit.

Felt pen? I thought he used crayons .......

Chalks ?

 

[Nick Dunhill]

Quite a squeeze.







I can see that a quick blow with an aerosol of carburetor cleaner might be in order now.

Here it is running on DCC. The chuffs are a bit out of sync, and I usually get that, and a bit of 'tuning-in,' done before delivery. This model however has a Zimo chip. I usually use ECU decoders and Rob @ Modelyard in Leeds sorts out the firmware for me as part of his fee for the hardware. There's no one I know of in Yorks that can supply and tune Zimo decoders professionally, unless someone out there knows differently......

Nick,

Paul Chetter (pauliebanger) is a name that was associated with Zimo stuff, I believe he is still on RMW, no idea where he’s based.

Looks like it passed the inspector's sniff test .

The cat decided it wasn't food. Sorry if you've mentioned this already, but what is the drive system, please?

 

[Nick Dunhill]

It has a Taff Vale Models 1425 (ish) motor and gearbox.

 

[victorianman]

Thanks very much. The performance is very impressive.

 

[Nick Dunhill]

Done. More pics when I get some decent ones taken.



This loco is built from a Agenoria Kit with some upgrades and 3D prints to replace the rather tired castings in the kit.

Hi Simond
Paul Chetter produces his sounds on Zimo chips on behalf of DIGITRAINS in Lincoln already have a few sounds of his in 7mm in my opinion very good the drivability in relation to the sounds is great with steam or diesel.
