Being a new subscriber to BRM from February 2018 I didn't get the Jan 18 issue with the start of Phil Parkers new micro layout called Didsbury Green. I have tried to download a digital issue but you seem to be unable to buy a single issue so can anyone tell the supplier of the baseboard, the size of the layout and the type of track used . ie code 100/75 please. I do have the Feb/March issues

 

Regards

The baseboard is from Scale model railway scenery and is roughly 4 foot long. It is code 75 I believe.

Hi,

 

Having just unpacked the baseboard bits from SMS, I am wondering how to actuate the turnouts as the 'space' under the layout is just 47mm deep.

 

Cheers

Hi Steve,

 

Another member has suggested SEEP PM4* because they are relatively compact, self latching with a polarity switch for my Code 75 Electrofrogs  - I just need a very compact power source for the turnouts - the loco control is powered by a wallwart.

You should be able to buy the January 2018 issue via the Pocketmags website, or the BRM "apps" for Android or iOS.

Steve,

 

Combine a Gaugemaster WM1 wall mounted power supply with a CDU. It should also have enough 'grunt' to run a handheld loco controller, I am using a W handheld as it is OK with can and coreless motors.

 

cheers
