    Jen, I came across your video's quite by accident one day 7 months ago (I Live in Aussie) Thanks to your first TRS video, I ordered 2 from Kyle. Due to the complexity of the builds, they do take time to complete. He is getting close to finishing the second now, I cannot wait to see the finished products running on my layout. I do enjoy your updates and watching your Railway run and expand. thank you.

    Really the best railway reviews for OO British trains on the internet. Also I am amazed by the TRS trains system.
  • @MarkInLA
    Funny, I was thinking for a few years that one day maybe we'd have steam/smoke not only from stack but from cylinders as well ! And now we have !!! I hope this grows to be included in all Brit/US/Euro steam issues. M, Los Angeles, Ca.
  • @Colin399
    It really makes the models come alive, very convincing
  • This is an outstanding improvement in realism. A few doubts and concerns raised on here by modellers, but I really don't think there is much cause for alarm using this system. Absolutely stunning. A hair-dryer at the end of a session would work ok if you really worry about moisture and corrosion anywhere.

    Nice review Jen. Ive had these 'smoke' generators in a couple of steam tug RC models. They do need the right level of water added to them to work and once you know what this is, are easy to refill repeatedly.

    Love the Brown livery loco, looks smart. I definitely would like one. Great video Jenny very informative. Ta!¡
  • @Flymochairman1
    A lot going on at the front of the loco but it is very effective. A 1980's Hornby Coronation Class that I have, has a 'lamp pick-up' for a lamp to a light pipe, which is vey intermittent, could handle such a system, space-wise, if the old tungsten bulb and light-pipe is removed. Hmm. Cheers Jenny! Keep Well, now!

    Very impressive the cost will depend if I add this to my collection
  • @alantoms3263
    Just a question, with all of the atomised, fine mist water, did you end up with adhesion problems with heavier loads - or even contact issues? Al.
  • They look amazing. I bought a Black Series from Dapol and it was the biggest mistake I have ever made. It left an oily mess on my 87 feet of track that I then had to clean. I sent it back and wouldn't go near one again.
