I do hope you enjoy these downloads. I will add to them from time to time, so keep checking back. If you have a fast internet connection, then they should not take long to download, but dial up connections will take longer.

Two rakes of the excellent Electrotren car-carrying wagons (availaible from the ever-helpful Modern Structures in Miniature - http://www.m-s-i-m.co.uk) pass one another at speed on the mainline. On the up relief an MGR train has been stopped by a hot axlebox detector and awaits the arrival of fitters.

This download illustrates my recently-acquired sound decoder. It is quite the most fantastic development and adds an additional dimension to the whole layout. But, be warned, it is so good that you will want to equip your entire fleet just for the thrill of seeing sound-equipped locomotives power up and down as they propel their trains. The decoders come ready equipped with the sound and are available from the excellent www.southwestdigital.co.uk. Enjoy!

Double-headed 37s with sound
|
I was so impressed with the Southwest Digital sound decoder that I immediately purchased two more that are now fitted to 37 419 and 37 699 respectively. Here, these locos haul a heavy MGR train away from a signal check, with the driver evidently struggling to keep the ammeter out of the red.

Double-headed Fragonset 31s upset the peace at Doncaster as they restart a heavy charter after a signal check
|
These Hornby 31s are both fitted with Southwest Digital's class 31 sound decoder which is, in my view, their best to date. Enjoy!
