    Thanks, perhaps A/S could add this topic to their very helpful Q&A page ?

    That's interesting, wonder how easy it will be to 're-number/'re-name a model without damaging the Blue ? Anyone tried this yet ?

    Instead of CA (super glue) try using Deluxe Materials Tacky Glue, will make it easier to replace any damaged pipes etc....

    Question for Fran Will the Class 37 marker light/sealed beam light lenses feature a light Grey ? translucent coating on the face of the lenses similar to Bachmann models ? TIA

    I have a cast version "somewhere" it attaches via a small round magnet inside the nose. I don't recall where I got it being a number of years back.

    Try adding small spots of Peco Electrolube on the rubbing area of the metal pick up strips, should solve the squeaking....... HTH

    Don't know about the 10000 type, but try Rainbow Railways, they had good quality 3D printed Bach 37 Air Horns on eBay. HTH

    Yes I'd agree, but with this new Bachmann announcement, there will be no room for any errors in the new Heljan model for it to compete, although the price comparison should prove interesting !

    Interesting, I've not used it on any Heljan models, often white spirit removes No's/names without damage to the paint on these. Provided one's careful/quick Strip Magic will remove sector markings/numbers on 3T Grey Bachmann locos without affecting the Greys underneath. Mask off the brandings apply the Strip Magic sparingly, for a minute or two and then apply some IPA/meth to stop the reaction.

    Deluxe Materials Strip Magic...avail from most hobby shops/eBay etc. Vids of using on YouTube .....

    Converted from a Bach BR Blue 47 035 - faded and weathered 47 145 Merddin Emrys" as it was at Tinsley in the early 90's. My first proper attempt at weathering, was a lot of work but I'm pretty happy with the results. New working HI headlights and ship/shore cab aerials added.

    Latest off the WB RES 47 781 Isle of Iona converted from the Bach 47 745 "London Society for the Blind.

    As per title Looking for a pair of 4mm nameplates for 37501 Teeside Steelmaster with BLUE backgrounds as per the REX Mag special edition models. TIA

    Noticed you managed to get new nose circuit boards. I was working today on an early Bach 47 which also has the headlights missing. I removed the nose end circuit boards and fitted a 1K SMD resistor at R6 along with a capacitor ( I robbed it from an old Bach circuit board) at C6 together with new White LED's - result working headlights with the markers. So it can be done. HTH Ken Edit: The capacitor is not required, just the a new LED and a 1K resistor, works fine without.

    Latest from the paint shop, something different for a change, a Swallow liveried Class 87 fully repainted back into InterCity Exec as 87 020 North Briton. Numbers by DRD transfers.

    I reset the decoder - CV8 = 8 I then tried once again to change it's address on the prog track - F8 >DIR > ADR > 8720 > on pressing enter > error 02..... time to move on....thankfully I normally avoid Hornby decoders, using Zimo/Loksound/Hatton's/TCS and Lenz instead, never had any issues with those.
  22. tractor_37260
    Aye....really..but a nice wind up for April 1st..... !
  23. tractor_37260
    Tried page and reg prog modes still not getting anywhere...command station just shuts off...looks like it will be staying as 03 ! Thanks for all the comments/ideas....
  24. tractor_37260
    Thanks for the link - I have a manual but it's an older version, 08/04 - so no page 55 - although the Set 100 has been updated to V3.6 I'll have another look at it using the linked manual. Yep definitely an R8249 with a BLUE spot.
  25. tractor_37260
    Basically I want to change the default address of 03 to 8720.... So to use POM - F > 7 and then what...?
