I don't have a way to post video, but here are some pics of Eibhlin, an Accucraft Ragleth with newly-installed R/C. The R/C gear battery is outboard for now as I'm waiting for delivery of a battery holder that will fit in the compartment below the footplate. All other electronics are stored there. The servo bracket and regulator control gear shown in the second and third pics are from the Roundhouse Bertie R/C mounting kit. Installation worked out nicely using an existing bolt just above the steps. The reversing lever is still operated manually. This loco also has a TTD regulator valve, Summerlands chuffer and Swift Sixteen safety valve cover. ~27 minute run time. My other, well-traveled Ragleth's run times increased from ~26 to ~40 min, so we'll how things go with Eibhlin.
