The Rounhouse Bulldog is well made and very controllable. But to me Essel are better quality or you could look at the Friog website.
Hope this helps Alan.

Hi Richard, As Chris said it is very easy to do wheel change, the wagons are designed to accommodate 32mm and 45mm wheel sets. I have seen quite a few on sale on line and at shows but prices tend to be high. You do sometimes strike it lucky, I once paid £20 for a pair that only needed a clean and re...

Essel Fowler charging.
Hi All,
Just decided to charge my Essel Fowler F30 after a long period not used. Unfortunately I stored it with another charger, so I am not sure what polarity and voltage the charger should be set at. Think the voltage should be 12v but not sure of polarity. Any help would be very welcome.

Hi Mr Bond, The loco is charged through a socket in the cab via a supplied charger. Can't give you any figures on battery life but I've never had the loco run out of battery.

Each to there own but I have track pinned to a timber base that's been outside for about 16 years with minimal maintenance with no problem. The timber was well seasoned and thoroughly treated with 5star wood preservative before use. It is not in direct contact with the ground which prolongs it's lif...
