Railer Posted June 2, 2020 Share Posted June 2, 2020 I note the RPSI logo on the box. Are they commissioning 134 in the grey livery by any chance? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Railer Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 For anyone who has seen the samples first hand. Can anyone confirm if PM managed to model the LED lights on 134 the opposite way from 124. 134 has the red LEDs on the outside of the whites instead of the usual white outside the reds.

DiveController Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Interesting observation, I had not noticed that, although the original (single) red marker was on the outside of the white, and the reds seem to be mostly on the outside (when fitted in the usual position instead of auxiliaries) during the square incandescent PP era. There are photos of 124 with red square incandescents on the outside and vice versa in different photos at that time. I suppose it didn't as long as the wiring on the prototype was correct!

iarnrod Posted June 6, 2020 Share Posted June 6, 2020 Best detailed MM locos to be released thus far. Both these and the A Class are seriously stunning models. Delighted to see an IE version with the earlier light setup. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Railer Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 I've a question about the 645 engine in the 121s. From the limited research I can do all I can see is that 121,126-129 got 645 engines in the mid to late 80s. 121 only had it for about a year before that engine wen to 154 and 121 went back to its 567 engine. So gone by that just 2 locos being released would be correct in the 645 sound chip? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flange lubricator Posted June 8, 2020 Share Posted June 8, 2020 (edited) The see thru grills are just one of big details but there are many small ones like the cut out footstep which was one of the many small modification's carried out on these locomotives during the service life on the railway system this shows a great attention to detail on these locos .

Unfortunately not man, That's a relief. I suspect many folks might prefer to do their own weathering, and to the extent they prefer. Factory weathering is usually rather poor and bland. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
