That's a hard one, ha.ha

When I brought it, it had a decoder already done but would not work so that's why I got a new one and I just copied the wiring,the wire's soldered to the motor terminal is were its supposed to be, on closer inspection the chassis block has already been cut back. today I will strip all down because even though it ran with the body off yesterday when i redone it there's a short with it now and I had to just walk away from it so hopefully today it will work.

Yes looking at the photos they don't look very good,today I am going redo it trouble is part of my health issues is I have reynauds and shakey hands I'm not as good as I used to be.

The sellotape is only temporary until I pop and get some insulation tape.

It's hard wired no plug and socket decoder has a sleave on

Yes it worked fine on dc that's what checked to make it wasn't the motor.there no communication with body on only with it off.

Here's some photos

Don't know if in the right place but I brought a second hand farish 170 dcc fitted couldn't get it working so got in touch with seller to see what number the decoder was set too, still would not work so simple thing to do is get another decoder as I disconnected it I gave the motor a try that worked on dc.I got another decoder which is a digitrains dz126 put that on and it works perfect put the body back on tried it not working take body of working OK again checked to see if trapped wires no put body on again not working body's all plastic so not that, it is tight fit anybody got any ideas or had same problem. Thanks Steve

At Wychnor junction on the NE/SW line between Derby and Birmingham also the line to Lichfield from there worked on a farm there, fields each side railway from 1975 great spotting days.worst day was when a lot of pigs escaped overnight and wondered on the line during the early morning there was jointed pork everywhere it looked like a war zone.

The video before this one you see big Jim arriving into Longport.

I was expecting to see photos on here,I think my set has got lost or they are shunted in a siding up north with the real ones.

Still waiting for my MK5s they was dispatched friday.

Looking through temu shop site the other day and put in model railway and buses and saw these buses I did put in for n gauge but these come up at 1.50th so I decided to order one to see what they are like for £3 pound odd the doors are on the left so fits in it arrived and it's not to bad for the price it might need painting but it looks modern placed in the right spot it will do.what do you think.

I haven't had delivery info yet. Steve

Thanks,better pull my finger out and put the new legs on the layout. Steve
