We could but let's not waste our energy on it. It was only a question after all....

No need to swear!

Why not? It might have an impact on my future purchases?

Wow, I can imagine there has been a substantial time investment in this project alone. It’s a long time since I used variables in programming but I’m sure (hope) it will flood back if needed. Thanks for the detailed reply, much appreciated.

Thanks for posting. I think the automation brings a lot to the “authenticity” of the scene, particularly with announcements (how did you incorporate these?) etc. Looking forward to the next instalment.

Fair enough, you might have to contact A and H Models then. There’s also a chap on YouTube called Hovermotion. He has an excellent European HO layout and regularly tears down models including Roco/Fleischmann. He might be able to offer some advice?

Hi, do you have any other locos to rule out issues with the system? Have you tried programming via the Z21 on its own? Sorry, don’t know much about RR & Co so can’t help you with that. You could try giving A and H models in Northhampton a ring, I’m sure they sell Fleischmann. They may have reduced hours at the moment though, check their website.

Oops, missed that, too much Guinness . Sorry

Hi Might be worth contacting the chap, think his name is Dave, who owns the company. He’s very helpful.

But you are not in full possession of all the facts. Just because you work in IT does not mean that you are an expert in this field. Its basic economics, supply and demand. If they weren’t selling at this price they would be cheaper or not sold at all!

But 30 mph can kill a child.......this is my personal experience.

Hi Mike Thank you for this information, much appreciated. I’ll do a little bit of research into the Dremel router attachment. Cheers Alan

Hi I’ve just discovered this thread and have enjoyed reading through your thoughts. I particularly liked the pics of the cut outs you have made for your magnets and servos. Can I ask what tools/techniques you used to get such neat cut outs? Many thanks Alan

Hi Fran That makes perfect sense thanks for your prompt reply! Alan

Hi, can someone explain the difference between “outers” and “inners”? Thanks
