Hey guys did some more work on the layout today including permanent lighting mounted above the layout (well lit videos look great IMO) and I set up new plastictown, the trains head away from town and into the countryside :p Still lots to do and i am looking for ideas. Have some more engines arriving over the next week or so and there will be my usual type of vid but on this lovely new layout. I had so much fun today that spencer went dead flat haha maybe he did over 40 laps on his original mod battery pack which had already seen allot of running. I wanted to make a rail yard but I have run out of straight pieces, Miraculously I had enough to finish the main line itself. Ok enough blabbing on Lets get to GORDON Well I got this Talking Gordon from Big W for $30 when I was there buying the 3 extra trestle tables for the layout, Its about $5 more than a regular large engine so thats not too bad. The lack of some detail is quite disturbing on a premium toy like this but it looks presentable enough, its speed is somewhat lacking especially since it runs on 4.5 volts standard (where is all the power going? lol). It makes quite a bit of gear noise from the drive unit I'm not sure if mine is faulty or they are all like that, please post in the comments if you have one and if its noisy when moving. Overall i like the engine and the sound effect adds to the atmosphere and at least he is not constantly talking like 3 speed james just a solid chugging sound from this Gordon and the odd whistle here and there. I give it 8/10 because its lacking a little paint detail to really bring it right up there. and the speed is slow (you can see Percy overtaking him on the other track). Let me know what you think of the new layout and things I should add (searchlight Victor is planned). Thanks for watching!!!
