- Bachmann 9f with trs trains synchronised smoke and cylinder drains
The models has been renamed and renumbered as Black prince. As well as the smoke fitting, we added a light 'preservation' weathering finish, lamps, coal load, and various details over all including painting the coupling rods.
All smoke fittings are cold water systems and DO NOT use heat or oil

The sound , smoke and synchronization is incredible ..well played , Sir well played !
I've only just discovered your work yesterday and I keep getting blown away in awe by it!
A completely cold, water-based smoke system for 00 gauge and anything above.... Marvellous!
Three questions:
1. How exactly does it work?
2. Would be confident enough to fit a finescale H0 scale locomotive with it?
3. Do you ship outside of the UK (I'm in Germany)?
Keep up the great work!
Greetings and best wishes

hi there. Firstly thanks!
Obviously I cant tell you eXACTLY how it works, but it works the same way as a room humidifier by using ultrasonic sound and piezoelectric disc.
yes I can fit finescale, and have done many in both 4mm and 7mm.
Yes I can post to Germany, ive got customers in the US, Canada, auz, Korea, Poland etc!
@@trstrains9330 Hi, thanks for the quick answer!
That's superb to hear! I'll be writing you an E-Mail soon then!
All those effects and no crew…
I always think it looks so weird, people running these super detailed modern model trains around their ultra realistic layouts...without any drivers! 😂
It's really difficult to fit crew after the fact you're right 😢
“No crew” 🤓
That looks awesome & so realistic. All you need now is another jet near the whistle to represent that!
If only our trains didn't need motors ;)
@@trstrains9330 These objects you are fitting with your miniature "Flash Boiler" boiling water vapour apparatus are colloquially known as LOCOMOTIVES and absolutely not "trains". Ask any bride, those follow their "tender", by definition.
And too; there are "tender drives" leaving an entirely open boiler space available---- so how about properly answering Andrew Mursell's question instead of the sarcasm?
@paullubliner6221 a little bit serious I think. Regardless what you say or think they're toy Trains lol its all a bit of fun
Awesome. Pity everyone films these on a rolling road. I know it’s easier but it’d be so much better to see them storming along at the head of a train… the smoke effect would no doubt be very different.
Wow that looks a amazing model would love to have one smoke and sound like that
Even though I am in the LNER camp, there are some BR steam locomotives I do like... the class 9F is in my list of likes.
Can I buy these units to fit to my locomotives?
Well now I want a black 5 with the features. Was this all done by yourself?
May I ask how you actually got these to puff and synchronize? I understand if not, I am just fascinated.
The smoke is mist. The sync comes from using the virtual cam trigger of ghe decoder.
Looks great. Out of interest is the water vapour given off enough to worry about damp / damage to landscaping? EG inside a papier-mâché tunnel?
Nah not at all. If you're going to sit there for 10 minutes with the drains going you'll get a puddle obviously, but if you run it how a engine should be used you'll have no trouble
@@trstrains9330 super. Now, how much to convert 25 odd kettles that already have DCC sound?!! 😄
Smoke is £180. Lamps and cylinder drains are optional extras, but firebox glow, crew, coal and weathering is free. And for engines getting the full works I do a top to bottom full refinish as. You see on this 9f.
Send me an email or contact me on fb and we can chat :)

bruh smoke liquid
We need more model steam locomotives that actually produce STEAM.
Overall very impressive, BUT that ubiquitous "shovel sound" is so imposingly loud it converts this otherwise quite nice execution into an insipid "ToyTrainCentral" caricature. Do try standing adjacent to an idle steam locomotive at a heritage railway then move away to a proper scale viewing distance, and you'll discover the blower sound alone easily overwhelms any interior cab sounds when heard at a distance approaching what one in reality must be from a 1:76 ratio scale model: ----hundreds of feet away.
Maybe. But when you're doing something to satisfy a paying customer what they say goes. And people lime to hear what's going on.
@@trstrains9330 Always disagreeing with the obviousl huh!
@paullubliner6221 I'm not disagreeing with you. I'm pointing out I provide a service for a paying customer, if they want something a certain way then that's how iy goes
PS.
I hope this smoke mechanism falls over into the US HO market...Funny how I and many thought long ago that since we have smoke units It'd be cool if one day it included blow down !! And now it does, and mighty strong to boot ! Amazing !! Guessing here that the whole boiler is filled with fluid or water encased away from the motor and gears.. No ?
Yes and no. I design and 3d print tanks for the engines but not necessarily filling thr entire boiler. I will always try and design the tanks to use as much space as I can but without loosing any of the weight. And being 3d printed, they're totally sealed.
Who can I send mine to
To have the same set put in
Do you think synchronized whistle ports are something you might offer in the future? I would love to see that.
Nah there's just not enough room. Especially in 4mm.
@@trstrains9330 Gotcha, thanks for the reply. Nice work!
@trstrains9330 you may try using small tubes to cary the mist and locating the source elsewhere? Idk lol
Wonderful model.
Would look superb in 0 gauge.
What scale is this O OO or G .????
How much does this cost?
Wow looks great 👍
Ingenious but I'm still not convinced. Whoever saw smoke going straight up in the air then dropping back down again in wisps. The problem is that the exhaust consists of steam and smoke and both will be hot enough to rise until they dissipate or are swept back along the train by the slipstream. While oil based smoke generators tend to be even more wispy. There is always going to be somethings left to be filled in by our imagination and I think perhaps this should be it.
I think you're taking toy Trains a bit too seriously to be honest. When you look at a 7inch gauge live steam engine, they operate exactly like the real thing, yet don't pillow clouds of smoke that hang around.
What we do is use a safe method to do what the oil units have been doing, but with better results. It's safe to breathe, doesn't use any heating element or oils, and doesn't make a mess. So, tho I agree smoke shouldn't just fall, it is the best concept available right now. On a moving train it looks quite good. You might want to flick through my channel and find a video that isn't on a rolling road
Considering the difference in cost from this model and a live steam model its absolutely amazing. Improvents to 00 and HO are only going to get better. A brilliant video display , well done !!
It never ceases to amaze me the criticism of smoke because it's "not convincing". First of all, this system looks great and is, at the very least, an alternative to using oil. Perhaps a heating element can be added to increase rise and dissipation.
Regardless, using your logic (or lack thereof), how is it that model train smoke is "not convincing", but a moving train, digital synchronized sound, etc. surrounded by static figures is convincing? Are we to believe the trains are moving through a sort of time-warp where every other thing is frozen in time?
Smoke from these engines adds to the effect, the wonder, the fun of it.
Perhaps you also disparage freelance layouts like those of Malcom Furlow, because "the trestles are too tall" / "there's too many tracks on vertical expanses" /. "the trains are not fully correct"?
Personally, I find prototype model railroading boring, but I understand those who enjoy the operation aspect of it all. I prefer the modeling, details, scenery, fantasy, art, and beauty aspect. And that's why it's such a great hobby: different people enjoy different aspects, and combinations, of the whole hobby.
So maybe YOUR imagination can fill in the smoke. I, and many others, will enjoy OUR imaginations being enhanced BY the smoke, little whisps or dropping back down.
This system looks great and I would like to put it in my engines as soon as I can get things up and running!
I would turn the sound off , its pathetic
I'd love yo hear some of your recordings
@@trstrains9330 turn off the sound produced by the train speaker , its pathetic. Got it now ?
@@patthewoodboy once again, as you're commenting critically of someone else's sound project (not mine) prehaps you can share some of your own? Or are you a simple arm chair modeller
@@trstrains9330 been a recording engineer in several studios , I know what sounds good , the speakers from these trains sound nothing like the real thing , they are pathetic. If you dont agree you might be deaf
Bloody amazing
Beautiful
Is it possible to do an add-on like this in a Ho locomotive
Yes

Do you guys make these smoke systems for HO scale? How much?
$$$$ ??
Amazing.
Screen is blank
They you've got an internet issue.....
Can you also send to Australia ?
Yes
