Loco No. 1 is silent no more!
Loco No. 1 is silent no more!
The first UK-based loco on the PLR (a Peckett, constructed from a GRS kit) has just been equipped with a Phoenix sound card (bought on eBay), after nine years of silence. Must say I am impressed with the card - though not with the price they are when new!
Many thanks to Phil Partridge my successor at http://rctrains.co.uk/ for reprogramming the card from a rather hefty sounding USA diesel to something more appropriate for the Peckforton Light Railway.

Brilliant Rik, very convincing.
You just need to fit a steam generator in there somewhere

As usual Rik, lovely job on that sound - another brilliant video. I really like the realism of your line - it looks like it's been there forever

Wonderful stuff Rik, good sound effects and beautiful scenic video. You seem to have priority when it comes to fine weather too.
The best things in life are free.... so why am I doing this?

Thanks Tom, James and Peter for such encouraging feedback. I like experimenting with different viewpoints - tried a couple of variations on this video. Nice to hear they seem to have gone down well.

Great video - I've had a knee op this week so I've been watching a few of your videos Rik - great stuff!
Where did I put that uncoupler?
