This page will showcase some of my videos that I have on YouTube.
Most of these will be sound videos, demonstrating the various sound projects that I have done with customers models and those that I've done myself for my own layout. My channel on YouTube can be found here: Jinty's Videos
This is a DJH Kit built Ivatt 2-6-2 2MT locomotive fitted with a Zimo MX645R decoder and running through a pair of my own 1.5w 8ohm speakers, wired in parallel. The whistle is incorrect but that is being addressed to have it changed to the correct Stanier hooter. This loco is next to have a headboard bracket fitted and a very gentle weathering as an 'in service' preserved example. The Ivatt crosses with a Dapol 'Jinty' locomotive (47479), which is a permanent resident at Talyllyn Junction and is also fitted with a Zimo MX645R decoder with again a twin 1.5w 8ohm speaker system.
Here is a video of a Heljan class 20, one motor has been removed to allow a large bass reflex speaker to be fitted facing down over the bogie. A Zimo MX645R has again been fitted as the current draw is very little with only one motor. This video shows a test with haulage and the sound decoder's capabilities for coping with the motor load very well considering it's a quite heavy train. The loco has since been finished with weathering and pictures are in the Gallery.
Here we have a Dapol 08 that I've recently finished. Finished as 08122 in BR Blue. I've added better vacuum pipes, windscreen wipers front and rear and weathered it as a well used example. Again a Zimo MX645 21-pin decoder has been fitted to this loco along with one of my own speaker and enclosures. The Zimo MX645 is about the only decoder that will work the lighting correctly and give the shunting lights at each end as well as the directional and cab lighting.
