I really want it for my slow collection of the Thomas range, but it's a bit expensive... especially with Christmas just around the corner. I think I've bought myself enough presents for a while lol

hey i have seen some vids of tidmouth and i am very sorry bachmann but it just doesent "float my boat" so i doubt i will get it once again sorry bachmann it just doesnt look like i will be having tidmouth sheds on my layout for a while  :(

for this might change because i still might get it for christmas but i will be using a different turntable, one that is less "sticky" :-\

As for the turntable: I don't think "sticky" is the right term to use. I believe it has something to do with the gears used to make the turntable "crank". The first gear is basically the handle/crank. That probably has a smaller gear and down the line the turntable itself has a larger gear. This provides more power with a good speed because a smaller gear is faster and connected to a larger gear, which has much more torque. There is probably a lag somewhere in the gear train.

If not I couldn't really explain why that it acts the way it does. I think it is a good model if you aren't going for perfect accuracy, but if you are also not using E-Z track, then I would find other alternatives.
