  1. I remember in the mid 50's travelling along Southampton Water seeing hundreds mothballed and anchored.
  2. Hey chaps I'm back. A bit said to see some of the comments criticising others. Each is entitled to their own "on subject" topics. If you don't like a particular contributor or he writes then just don't read them. You are adult after all.
  3. Andy, throw aah. Dave, Ixion. But I'm pursuing this purely for my own fun and amusement. I'm a great fan of using Duracell technology - many years ago I used to design things that would sit on the seabed for years and still function when required to do. Some clever tricks with passive components worked wonders. That's me I'm done - off to Hospital again on Friday.
  4. I did mention Ixions O gauge loco as my interest is 7mm.
  5. I wondered if someone might mention cost. But mains electricity also costs money, it just gets hidden.
  6. I wonder why little mention has been made of throw away dry cells. I've been investigating the use of packs of say 4 or 6 AA Duracells, but still have to do more work. My feeling is that for something like the Ixion 0-6-0 one could get at least a couple of days playing trains at home or a days worth at an exhibition. Obviously such a loco doesn't just go round and around a loop continuously, and doesn't have to go full speed.
  7. Southport was in Lancashire when I was born and breed - and remains so as far as I am concerned.
  8. See the full story at http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/91935-saunton-park
  9. Enjoy it. Surely the best show of the Year.
  10. Now I know why I like you. Not ICL but along the road at BAC's missile plant in Hangar 1!
  11. An alternative supplier of plywood is http://www.mobilemarinemodels.com/plywood-107-c.asp I built a model tugboat some years and had left over several sheets of thin ply now being utilised in my 7mm project. I had to chuckle at one of your earlier posts regarding your wife going to Sixways, I reckon she got the better part of the day. :-)
  12. Randy, one thing you could help with regarding the App and an iPad. Do I need to hook up to a Mac to get sound files from iTunes?
  13. The URL for the Soundbyte App is changed. One needs to search for Black Cat Systems in the App Store, now £2.95. I like the idea for Club layouts of having a "Sound Operator." Could well suit someone who likes model railways but doesn't build.
