Kev, my heart goes out to you. You worked your tail off to bring your engine back to fighting trim, and expensive, lousy modern decals proved to be a thorn in your side. You sweat all the details you could, buying all the correct parts and bearings you needed and must have spent a lot of time fettling parts. You did a damn good job. It looks amazingly better, and has been cleaned and painted to a lovely state. Good on you!! ❤❤❤ Thank you for the great video.😊
Don't knock it kev it was a great video well presented, I feel your disappointment about the decals the backing paper thay used was rubbish and that's why you had the problem I had a similar problem a long time ago ,but apart from that you made a superb job of this loco, onwards and upwards my friend 👍
Nice job Kev, I'm a slot car guy looks like they're made using the same principle, I still play with my Aurora track I got in '68 for Christmas. Cheers ✌️😎
Nice work Kev. ☕👌👍🤗

You did your best Kev, and it does look a lot better. so how does it Run ?
It runs far better, vast improvement the brushes need bedding though for a smoother slow speed pick up, thanks for watching and your comment.
