With one 37, presumably this could haul the empties. Might have to get 2 of them, if loaded? Plenty of instances of a single 37 working loaded and empty MGRs. Or three if your modeling a South Wales valley, they needed three to stop em. HAAs were notorious for poor road handling and brakes. There's stories out there of drivers having the brakes on hard and still picking up speed down gradients such as Miles Platting and Shap/Beattock.

37081LochLong Posted October 8 Share Posted October 8 I'm slightly confused (some say permanently)... Quite a while ago I ordered 37702 from key publishing, but the information at the start of the thread says that the key publishing model is 37710, while showing artwork for 37702. Did I miss something? Are they doing both or did they change their mind? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers @37081LochLong for heads up on that. @Accurascale Fran can I assume that a separately purchased sound decoder will be a new version to include the upgraded electronics. The working fan for example? See answer below. DCC ready version 37702 ordered 🙂 Edited October 8 by zr2498 Response added 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The working fan for example? Hi @zr2498, Correct, there will be a change of file to support the changed PCB. A 'Generation 1' decoder will not fully support the functioning on these new Class 37s. We will offer the gen 2 sound decoder in due course as a separate item and mark it accordingly to avoid confusion. Cheers! Fran 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold 97406 Posted October 8 RMweb Gold Share Posted October 8 They look great and I'll deffo be up for one or more. Will take a proper look when I'm back home from the seaside today! Looks like the fit of the screen moulding has been sorted on those examples which was my only beef with earlier examples (and fixed by me where necessary). Looking forward to the part 2 reveal as I feel there maybe my holy grail in there! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

37501 Posted October 8 Share Posted October 8 My wallet is trying to convince me that I don’t need any more Class 37s but 37420 is very tempting. Should 37262 appear in Large Logo blue… 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Ian J. Posted October 8 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 8 Finally 🙂 There's at least two blues there I'd like. One Welsh, and at least one of the Scottish.

I’m always wary of running Sound locos on analogue after a friend told me speed was severely impacted to the extent the loco crawled round his layout . Do you know if the model comes with a blanking plug , as it would then not be a disaster if it failed to work ? I also think constant sound could be irritating after a while . I think I might just wait , though . It is interesting that even with Bachmann the full yellow headcode box 37/4s produced seem to be Welsh ones ! 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
