After picking-up a Houston Gate Loco Works on eBay for a bargain price (as you all know, I'm a bit of a cheapskate!),
the first thing I did was to convert it from manual control to radio control - using a Deltang Rx65c which has been sitting in my spares drawer for a couple of years.
Here's the first RC run ......
As you can see from the video, my next stage will be to convert the body to something more like a conventional centre-cab diesel loco such as this one.....
I've started designing the parts I need in TinkerCad and printing them out
I'll keep you updated as to progress.
