That's pretty damn impressive mate. Keep it going! 
Hi Guys
As promised, ive finally managed to get the basic concept of my twin bogie BoBo live diesel locomotive, using my OS FS four stroke nitro engine.
I may be wrong, but from the research that I have done, I am either one of the first, OR THE FIRST PERSON, to make an Electric start, 4 stroke live diesel locomotive, as all others using the 4 stroke I believe were pull start.
It is a very basic layout at the moment, and was really just to test out my scratch built chassis (made using shelve units) and the Electric start of the 4 stroke, and how to couple it to my generator.
After looking the very fine craftsmanship, seen in the videos produced by David (dewintondave), I agree that although the noise o=from the four stroke is much more acceptable and scale, then the 2 strokes ive been using, it could still do with silencing some more, and i do plan on building a exhaust pipe out of copper pipes of various sizes in due course.
