Seamer Model Railway Clips

[The 158 Man]

To save me time (and the forum space) I'm just going to post all my new clips on here when they're uploaded.

To start the ball rolling, here's 57008 with a short container train.

My apologies for the incorrect name/number configuration on the titles! :roll:

Plenty of flats, look a bit short for containers but as per usual another sucessful video!

 

[The 158 Man]

I'm too tight to buy any more!

How very Northern

Oooo, thats gunna hurt! how can 158 man retaliate...

How much do the units usually cost anyway?

 

[Gizmogle]

Normally about £55-£70ish IIRC?

Cor! could get a Deltic with money to spare for that, some proper traction there

 

[kettlefan]

im sorely tempted to buy one of those 170 things from bachmann, either that or a Derby 108.

Thanks! ***plots evil plan for revenge***

Nah, only kiddin, I've got a great sense of humour!

As for the prices, Gizmogle is right. But it does depend on where you get them from, and what unit it is. A new Bachmann 158 (generally speaking) costs more than say a second hand Lima 156.

On the other hand, now Hornby are producing the 156s again, they're actually more expensive! It's outrageous really, as they're nowhere near the Bachy 158s for quality!

I got my latest Bachman 158 for £50! (They have now sold out on the site i bought it from!)

I also have a 156, and agree that they arn't as decent as the Bachman models, and the prices they are charging is ludicrous!

My next purchase will hopefuly be a Hornby 47!

 

[The 158 Man]

I've just had so send a Northern Rail 158 back to Bachmann. :roll:

 

[Gizmogle]

Oh dear, how come?

 

[The 158 Man]

One of the spindles that drives one of the power bogies snapped! :mad: And seeing as they don't supply just the spindles as spares (you have to buy the whole gear assembly minus the wheels) I had to send it to them to be fixed.

Having said that, it will be nice to see it running again!

 

[158809]

A Northern Rail one?
That must be the WYPTE liveried one?

 

[The 158 Man]

Yeah, sorry I wasn't very clear with that one.

I should have said, "new WYPTE with 'Northern' branding." :razz:

 

[960012]

Having been inspired by your work i decided to have a go myself!

Any Comments?

Should have muted the background noise from the original film and the timing was a little off, by time the recording had passed the locos hadnt even made it past half way.

But we learn from our mistakes and get better, is that really an Ivatt sound though?
