I'd expect the converted tube carriages to put in an appearance (don't know their TOPS class) Ian_B

but how many lines would have gone if the 142's had not been introduced? Ian_B

what did you use to represent the strop? and the lashing point? Ian_B

Yes you can. If the chips been set up properly by Bachmann you shouldn't have to do anything. Ian_B

its a tool put together by modellers to display at varying levels of detail (numpty, not a complete numpty and pretty knowledgeable) the CVs of a decoder with the related switches.. so if you know you need to set CV29 to a particular value it will display what it is currently, allow you to edit it, write the new value to your decoder and save the value on your computer. it will also allow you to create a throttle on your display with buttons for each function. The community of users create new decoder and controller definitions as required as well as providing support to the less experienced. They don't share sound files, butwill advise as to your settings if approached politely. Ian_B

Decoder Pro is your friend - copy the lighting settings you want, then write them onto the decoder - as long as the settings and lights are not linked, you should be fine. (Unless Biff says different!!) Ian_B

several years ago one of the Modelling magazines (Model Rail I think) printed a clearances diagram which showed the clearance in MM from the rail to surrounding objects (Platform edges, bridge abutments, signal masts and heads, catenary etc etc. Does anyone, by any chance have a copy? Regards Ian_B

Isn't that the thought experiment where you can't tell if the flask is loaded or not? Ian_B

were the twin height buffers a common Mod? the RH buffers appears to be a different shape to the others.

the popup window that offers me the choice to block the cookies offers a 'save and exit' option, but apparently doesn't save as it reappears on each new page offering the memorised selections. Ian_B

yes, every time I move to another topic Ian_B
