Bucoops

There was a training coach in Norwich Station in the early 90s I think - it was fitted in the Swallow era for sure.

You could ask Hornby? 🍟 (being blind, can't see popcorn)

I was about to say I remember mainline without CDL, then I stopped to think. Yup, in my 6th Decade... Dang.

Shut the door carefully on the way out please.

I have listened to it many times, but by far the best was when there were meteor showers due, and the local commercial radio station played it in one go, with no advert breaks, and we had camp-beds in the garden listening whilst watching for the shooting stars. Didn't see any but what a way to listen to it!

Enough already, the Tench-ion is killing me.

Methinks you are fishing for compliments?

Dynamic range I believe - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_range DVDs can "carry" more detail whereas regular broadcast audio is compressed.

I suspect the set isn't in stock and instead of removing the listing they've bumped the price to ludicrous level so nobody buys it, when back in stock the price goes down again. Not unusal on ebay annoyingly.

As that is the method they said they would use previously, and then repeatedly did not, I don't think the ORR would agree to it.

I'm not sure he has ever reached that level?

But.. but... it doesn't say kit built?!

It's OK, I have short leggies 😁

85 sheets of Plastikard are now sitting under my desk. Lovely jubbly :D

No tell tale on full brakes is one that traps people sometimes.

Something similar happened with a 321 not that long ago - IIRC the bolts that held the sensor activator that allowed the system to recognise a door was open had been left out, so the door moved, but the activator didn't. so the system thought the door was shut. Wonder if the maintenance guys then moved to Boeing. Allegedly 🙃 If it wasn't Morecambe, perhaps it was Wise?

Think it's been posted on here before but 24:50 - post privatisation nationalisation but still in original livery. https://player.bfi.org.uk/free/film/watch-great-north-of-scotland-railway-films-1963-online?play-film

Not sure quite so simples now 😜

I may well end up wrecking the lot in an evening - Got a cheap Cameo 4 on the way now as well. I foresee many ribs for roofs in my future, along with interior partitions etc.

The circuitry s built in, you just have to add the actual capacitor(s) - although you may need to change a CV to enable it, not sure on that, https://www.youchoos.co.uk/Index-Detail.php?L1=Detail&Item=MX645 - there's info on how and what to connect here.

Just need someone to say they've seen George Formby and you're all top-trumped. Best guitarist? I'd say Knopfler personally. But it's largely down to personal taste. Clapton, technically, superb guitarist - but just too "technical" for me, not enough "feeling".

If I've understood the listing correctly, then I think I just got 120 sheets of Plastikard for 29p each delivered. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/315245693683 edit: Oh. the thicker sheets have 5 per pack not 10, so 85 sheets for 41p each. I'll still take it as a bargain.

No worries :) Not sure if they have announced when code 100 may get the unifrog treatment, I believe they intend to move everything over eventually (I am picking up electrofrog as and when as that is my preference). Incidentally, cdn stands for content delivery network rather than Canada - although I can see why you would think that especially as you rightly say Shopify is Canadian. CDNs replicate data all over the world and it picks the closest location to where you are to display it from to keep things as fast as possible.

Surely their website can't be that bad. Hmm, it is. Best I can come up with is SL-xx where xx is a number are insulfrog, SL-Exx are Electrofrog and SL-Uxx are unifrog. https://peco-uk.com/collections/product-wishlist/peco+streamline+narrow-gauge+oo-ho-16-5mm+100 Looking at the pricelist, there's no code 100 unifrog from what I can see -https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1541/1303/files/PECO_Retail_Price_List_NEW_2024.pdf?v=1709113021
