Loved this one Charlie, really liked the steam sound, the only problem I have with steam sound is the chuff sounds to quick, if that makes sense, is it possible to change this?

@ChadwickModelRailway 2 года назад

I don’t believe so Alan. I’m certainly no steam expert but I’ll find out about the chuffing chuff rate. 😜 Regards Charlie.

@@ChadwickModelRailway I know TRS Trains manage to sync the smoke (Steam) with the chuff, I suspect they use ultrasonics for the smoke, much safer than heat, but they don't say how it's done, protecting there invention I suspect.

Thank you Charlie for a very interesting and informative video. Years ago I built a PCB with components supplied (not sure which company) of an “EXHAUST STEAM SOUND CHUFFER”. This was of course for a regular DC analogue layout and had the loud speaker fitted statically on the layout under the scenery. Years before DCC but gave a realistic sound albeit not upon the loco, but upon the layout itself. The sky is the limit now with DCC, but those of us with analogue, it still adds a touch of realism.

@rogermathews6924 Год назад

Spent many an hour at Reading General in the late 60's watching Westerns and Warships, and the Warships were always my favourites, probably due to the famous and evocative names they used to carry. The best livery in my humble opinion was green with half yellow fronts, together with red nameplates and 'D' prefix numbers. They really were a magnificent loco, especially when double heading the Cornish Riviera express. Never forget my excitement on the day that D830 Majestic slowly came through the station on the middle line with a down freight, the last Warship that I needed to complete the full set. Cheers Charlie, love the channel.

You were lucky with that Hornby GWR. I recently bought a new Hornby Castle, when I took the tender top off, all the internals disintegrated immediately. You do right to add weights to the tender, I always add some car wheel weights to Hornby tenders. Also lining the inside of the tender with bath seal (for sound deadening) improves the sound quality.

@ianstrachan7668 2 года назад

Really interesting - and shows how intricate these models are. One observation from the steam loco on the rolling road - it looks as if its got a slight issue with 'wobble'. The cab wobbles but the front end seemed to be going up and down too? I've watched other videos on 'quartering' so I wonder if the quartering on this loco is just slightly out, causing the wobble...or whether it's an axle either bent r not sitting properly? Its one of these things that doesn't show up when running around the layout. Now I can understand why a good few secondhand locos are described as having a 'wobble' ! They must be tested at the shop on a rolling road! Thanks yet again Charlie.

@mikeking2539 2 года назад

Brand new models steam and diesels (excuse bad spelling it's not a strong point with me) have a certain amount of wobble to them. I assume that this could be due the the axels having round ends, and the wheel sets been a press fit. If the axles had squair ends and the axle holes the same, (like Slaters) then perhaps they would not wobble! Just a thught!

@davidmorris8847 2 года назад

Another very enjoyable video - thanks, Charlie. But I agree with Don Shape - my memory of Kings (and Castles) taking off from High Wycombe on a 'down' train is that they had a much more throaty/bassy sound, especially on those first few 'chuffs' from a standing start. But maybe that was enhanced by echoes from the 'up' line retaining wall! Reproducing a sound like that from a speaker smaller that a matchbox is a big ask. Maybe a tuned resonance tube stashed in the first carriage would come close to doing it justice - well, over to you and your contacts at the manufacturers on that one then, Charlie 🤣

I wanted to offer that ACC can be broken free very easily by putting it in the freezer overnight. Of course it works on all of the ACC on a model but if it’s used for only for joining the chassis to the body of loco you are home free. Thanks for your great videos. Cheers from the US.

Hey Charlie, Despite the fact that i am into swiss railways (period 3/4) I really love your show. British model railroading is quite different from continental railroading. Your eye for detailing and landscaping is amazing. Very realistic. What i like about your approach is that you just start and you find out things on the run. To me it seams that british model railroaders have far more quality issues with their rolling stock then continental model railroaders. On the other hand prices of british rolling stock are far more acceptable then continental. May i suggest that you buy two pair of tweezers, one straight, one bent, ik will make your life so much easier handling small wires screws and other parts. Keep up the good works, thank you very much.

To be fair: Back in the day I had a few years on a preserved railway. On a certain day I was approaching the yard with a works train, doing 15-20mph. Unbeknownst to me, there was an unscheduled movement going on in the yard.The yard foreman had, therefore, laid out 3 track detonators at a suitable distance to warn the train as we had no operating signals. Even at 15-20mph the resulting explosions almost rolled into one sound.

An interesting point, I shall have to have another listen.

Wow! If I could only get the King George the 5th to run on my period narrow guage logging railroad......Guess that's not going to happen. Anyway as always, fascinating to explore the comings and goings on the Chadwick from here on the Central Coast of California.

The sound from Howes is good, but the best I have heard is the Locoman Sounds Chip for the king - other then that it’s good!

@ChadwickModelRailway 2 года назад

Sound is a very subjective subject, and also a nightmare, regards Charlie

@derekmulready1523 2 года назад

Charlie, as a complete novice, I'm finely getting around to laying track. It's really amazing how small the locomotives are , with your camera they look huge . What is the width of the bench that you have laid the track on. The era I'm trying to model is the cross over between steam and the first Diesels introduced into Ireland by CIE. 🇮🇪🇪🇺

@ChadwickModelRailway 2 года назад

Hi Derek my bench width is 30 inches. Regards Charlie

@barrysumsion1339 2 года назад

Hi Charlie. That Warship does look great. However I do have several sound fitted steam outline models and I never fit speakers in the tender. I never heard a tender chuff! Seriously if you take the bother (and it is in many cases) to fit the speaker(s) up the front in the smokebox you will be amazed at the improvement in what sound you get. One of my Castles would easily outbark (is that a word?) your King which to my ears sounds a bit asthmatic. I believe the problem lies in the internal shape of tenders from which the sound bounces. I frequently fit as large a sugar cube speaker (12mm or 9mm) in the smokebox against the back of the smokebox door facing back into the boiler which I think probably acts as a megaphone. It acts brilliantly. I always fit sound systems from South West Digital whose steam systems are generally better and more appropriate than many others. Hope one day that we may be able to chat face to face. Regards Barry

Hi Charlie, excellent video as always, thank you. Can you get sound effects for analogue trains ?. I use the soldering iron to shrink the cable sleeves. It works well and saves time getting other devices. I have actually seen someone use a cigarette lighter; bit excessive eh !

@ChadwickModelRailway 2 года назад

Yes some sounds are available for analog trains, however I am no expert in this area. Regards Charlie

Hey Charlie, I share your pain! New model arrives, but not “as expected “….! Do you send it back, or sort it yourself? I’ve had that moment where I’ve though “bugger, should have sent it back”! But hey, ho, that’s part of the challenge and fun of railway modelling, isn’t it?!? @14:00 Blacktac! Wee dod of the stuff to keep the errant wire in check. @25:40 Love the irony! @26:30 Weathering looks fab! @37:15 Margaret’s hairdryer…. Really? It’s obviously yours!!!! @40:10 Sounds great!!!!

Great tutorial charlie but if you think the tmc weathering is good send one of your locos to The Weathering Works, for around 25 quid plus postage ( prices may have changed since i got mine done) the weathering work is superbly done 👍😀

Re the cables in the "War ship" I would have put a little bit of tape over them, just to help keep them in place in the channels. I have in the past when wanting to fit a decoder to brand new locomotives, that wires have been trapped inside, and almost split in half by the body screws.

@ChadwickModelRailway 2 года назад

You are of course right Mike, I should’ve take them down prior to reassembly.

@mikeking2539 2 года назад

@@ChadwickModelRailway Or perhaps the guys in the factuary should do this when they make them! I must (although I like clean locos) say the the Weathering that TMC have done on the model is perhaps the best that I have seen,

@paulhowes8756 2 года назад

Again a very well shot piece. Was I the only person who winced at the red tape over the wire joint? - Next time I see you I will let you have some heat shrink - it not only insulates but mechanically protects the joint from strain also.

@paulhowes8756 2 года назад

I see you did use it on the second one fitting the speaker.

@ChadwickModelRailway 2 года назад

Yes. Sorry Paul, I missed a trick there, thinking that I didn’t have small enough heat-shrink.

@richardpiper5356 2 года назад

Charlie, Really, just got round to watching your video of the installation of sound into King George V, I know I may be being pedantic, but when did Steam loco's have Horns, I am sure I heard a whistle when you activated the sound option...... !!!!!!

@ChadwickModelRailway 2 года назад

Don’t worry Richard, it wasn’t the only slip of the tongue. I also said that the tender had three bogies!

@sbv-zs7wz 2 года назад

I'd pop some masking tape over those cable channels to hold the wires in, something seen inside lots of tech equipment with delicate wiring, ditto something to secure and route those connector wires away from internal fouling.

@ChadwickModelRailway 2 года назад

You’re certainly right on this one. But what a dodgy design!

Another great video Charlie . I must admit i would have returned the faulty loco and got them to sort out the roof vents at the same time ..Is any warranty invalid after it's been modified with the weathering ?

It’s an interesting question Shaun, but my warranty lies with TMC as the supplier.
