Hi, Tom-san, Quote:[size=1" face="Verdana" id="quote]quote: Originally posted by TomB<br />[u][b]Very nice couple you have got there ..... Congratulation  I must tell, in January I had one E10 (39120) and I asked: which one do you suggest for me to buy. I put a Loksound decoder in 39123 and it has became a lovely loco. But, I must say 41274 is great. You've ordered the set, haven't you? |

Hi Steven, moved already on 09-09-09 Since that day I travelled already 11.000 km on the Berlin Warszawa Express. Each trip takes about 5.5 hours for a one way distance of about 575 km. So the situation at the moment looks like Mon-Fri Warsaw Sat-Sun Berlin But I'm lovin' it  |

Amazingly well! I didn't have *any* previous experience on these little mice but have heard warnings about their pulling power. It is very silent, the only noise comes from the cars. I tried with five cars. In the flat part of my layout it doesn't have any kind of problems pulling those, on any speed. No slipping. I also have a lower level which has a 5-6% slope up, and there were no problems either, provided that enough speed was used. My testing configuration:  Markku

Thanks, Bill.
These Prussian coaches are great. Unfortunately they are the DRG version. Maybe I could find a couple of the Era I models. They would really be ideal for this loco. |

Hi all, Just back from the Falkirk exhibition,where I met Chris Manvell and we had a blether about his smart Z gauge layout. Had good look round the traders but NO Marklin,except for one traders spares or repairs box right at the bottom. A class 89 and a class 24. Put some new brushes in them and they both ran OK. (They do need a clean up).Paid £10 for the two of them. Ian.

Smart buying Ian, they are a nice addition to your roster.
Is that rain I see outside the window? I guess my brother in FW would get it more of it.
Could do with some here.

Hi Kimball,
Thanks,once I give the 2 of them a bit clean up(but not to much) they
will sit nicely on the layout.
Yes thats rain on the windows,it seems like it's been raining nearly every day for the last 2 to 3 weeks.
Ian.
Yes, Fort William on the West coast usually get more rain than us.

It's a replacement loco already, as the first one delivered did not run.
But got it replaced by my dealer from Germany per mail within a week.
And the second one is a desaster as well [:(] Both locos were returned and I denied the offer of getting a third one sent to me. In that case, there is no new loco 4 me so far [:(] |

Hi Ian. I didn't notice it before, your BR24 has the cylinder box painted in red instead of black, as usual! Pietro

Hi Pietro,
Yes,I think the BR24 has had some "cosmetic" work done.
Not sure what you call them on the top of the Loco but they are painted silver,can't be right is it?
Ian.
