SIRT posted:DJ, those corrected windows look so much better along with sliding into the intended window channels. Good job on the decorations as well. That's how it should be done. I also like your informative you tube videos. Looks like a #7 in the latest catalog photo.
The squealing brakes were not in the red R12 sound set. Several requests to Roy were never fulfilled along with correcting the silly LIRR MP15 last I checked. I hope he will add them.
Thanks
Steve, thanks so much for the compliments! I’ve followed your work for years and it’s been a big inspiration for me with my passion for trains. There is a wealth of art & history in this hobby and you capture it in the purest and simplest sense within the era you model..... one of the few that do.
In regards to the red R12’s.... I put a different sound set in my set. It’s a flushing train now. I couldn’t stand the lack of brakes and the stupid door bell!
Now I actually like the station stops on the mp15’s but I do agree that they should offer a freight sound set for the modern era mp15’s giving us the ability to swap sound sets. I kitbashed some K line 18” aluminum LIRR cars for my oyster bay/ lower Montauk commuter run.
Last point, I’m not sure who Roy is. Can he help MTH to stop screwing up LIRR & NYCTA sound sets & details? I’m remembering all the errors on the Redbird R33S cars & ”Bella rose” on the dashing Dan MU’s. Can he help us?
