    the resistor is normally attached to the long lead also the LED is polarity sensitive

    this one - it has taken a lot of effort but worth it

    get in touch with Hornby they have been replacing complete chassis and in my friends case a complete loco

    the sparking might be the traction magnets if they are fitted shorting on the driving wheels or a dirty commutator

    i did my own detailing - then i found canbridge custom transfers do a decal sheet for it
  15. cobach47
    i did a similar job on my 3F i could not find a picture of this scheme hope it's not too far off the mark

    the problem is in the rear springs being too long even Hornby recommend shortening the springs by cutting off some of the coils

  19. cobach47
    yes please i would like your set of J72 wheels i will PM you my address

    Hornby 01 some parts missing - pick-ups in a tangle but worth the effort for £12
  21. cobach47
    i have started using sharpie pens to detail loco cabs they do silver gold and bronze - so easy old airfix 4F
  22. cobach47
    these may be just what you need - bought for £1.99 each - geared down to 300 rpm max from e-bay go to "geared motors"
  23. cobach47
    i use individual numbers the only way to get the number you need - i based my 4F on a photo i think the yellow stripe makes it less drab
  24. cobach47
    the only varnish i trust is purity seal spray from games workshop about £10.50 a large can gives a semi-matt finish like this

    easy - just stick a small piece of foam between the axle and the bottom of the bogie - simple !
