A Journey into O Gauge - Part 1

About 8 months ago I started O gauge out of just one curious listing which would snowball from there. I've gained lots of lots for this collection and I've only spent under £100 for my collection. More parts to come soon!

Do O Gauge myself in the states, but I've been having fun acquiring British locomotives and stock from the UK.
Mostly clockwork, as you lads use 2 rail DC and we use 3 Rail AC, but I've also found a Triang Blue Flyer Hymek and a Lima 4F, both on battery power.
Hymek runs good on Lionel tubular track, hopefully when the Lima arrives it'll be a good 'un as well.

I've made plenty of handrails with paperclips. It's very therapeutic. Many of my o scale models have been done this way.

Lima O gauge - never mind the detail, feel the girth.

Hi Ryan. Great video mate and I look forward to seeing your next part. Have you heard of Delrin Drive ? Its a system to connect two or three motor bogie axles together using a plastic chain ! See you Wednesday evening, regards from Ron 🚂🚂👍

[@numptypootis8012]

Hi Ron, I have heard of Delrin Drive and I did think of making my own many times trying to sort the Hymek but I might just go ahead and buy some if I know where to find it 👍

[@RonCooper-nl4pn]

Hi Ryan, I used this system for my Class 31 but it all came with the Kit, but I will try and locate a supplier for you. Regards from Ron 🚂🚂🚂

O gauge Scallop?

[@numptypootis8012]

I've not heard someone talk about scallop for months now 😅 it is a nice thought but he'd be massive to run anywhere!
