Chuffers again

[MRail]

Just posted a couple of new video clips on YouTube.
After modifying the RC Tx's to ratchet control for the reversers, it became possible to experiment for optimum settings for hands free running. This made filming a little easier. The line is the Mossala Hill Railway, 16mm on 45 gauge.
First clip is my Edrig with Owain body kit, The second is rather longer, Lady Anne with Baldrig body ("Lady Baldrig"), including a few minutes of on-board "driver's view".

Really enjoyed watching. Those Summerland chuffers really make them sound good.

Trouble with neighbours pre-dates the railway!
The imaginary village beyond the 2m fence is called "Great Whingeing".

These videos are not on my own line, but on a "field trip" to a nearby longer line.
Mossala Hill is a contributor to GSC.
Can't get good slow running at home, due to sharp curves & steep grades.
