I don't know about anyone else, but we've only been in "shutdown" for a week.....and I'm bouncing off the walls with frustration!! It seems strange, but I'm fairly used to spending three, four, or even up to six days on the trot at home by myself...as I've done so for around five years now, particul...

The "nose" is trapped between the body and the chassis, and held in place by the pin on the chassis. So no gluing required!

I emailed them in February to enquire if they had or would consider producing jigs, etc for T gauge. their reply: Hello Doug, After checking with Tim he said it would be almost impossible to create an assembly fixture for T scale due to the limited clearances required.

I even had one wire come unsoldered at one end when I was soldering the opposite end!...

How did you install the decoder chip into the unit? I'd love to compare notes so we can put together the definitive way of doing the install. Regarding your question on the lights, I think the wiring depends on which version of the decoder you have. The image I posted above actually shows how the wi...

This morning, I heard the sad news that forum member Mike Sharp....username - Nutter , passed away on the 8th March after a long illness that included spells in hospital.

Mike had been an active member of the forum for five years and I shall miss his cheery posts....

WELCOME TO THE NEW FORUM STYLE It wasn't planned......it wasn't even expected. But the forum now has a fresh and new look and feel to it. And I hope everyone likes it.
