Accucraft WD Baldwin

[Chris Bird]

Here is a short video of Roy Wood's Baldwin running on his railway a week or so ago. It is a bit speedy at times and could do with radio control (at least for filming!).

You can see it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mGXk...deep in the woods near York. Cheers Chris

Nice video Chris (and nice chuffs too!).

Quite timely as Accucraft are just about to announce another batch of these Baldwins for next year

Happy steamigs,

John

Thanks for the kind words Allan and John! Interesting to hear that there is a new batch John - not surprised though as they are very nice models. I have to say that I like the GVT version (of the real thing) with the copper capped chimney etc.

Roy is not on this group but after listening to the video, thinks that the timing may be a little out - there seem to be only three beats when running slowly. He asked for timing advice on the 16mmngm group but got zero response. I think this group may be able to do better..........

I will pass on any thoughts - and I know they will be much appreciated.
Cheers
Chris
