The standard default for new decoders is that the two outputs called F0f/F0r, or white/yellow, or FL/RL (and there are other notations) depending on which decoder manufacturer/type, operate with the F0 key in forward and reverse directions respectively. In much the same way that the default address is #3 Many decoders have the ability to map the outputs so they can be directional or not and/or operate with different F key. And there lies the solution to your question. The relevant CV values will depend upon the make of decoder fitted.

Supplier of plywood/MDF cut to size?
newbryford replied to Jack Benson's topic in Modelling Questions, Help and Tips
I'm fortunate that I still have a proper timber merchant nearby. They will quite happily cut me a "flat pack" - even with such odd measurements as 2' minus 24mm. (An end inner panel on a 2' wide baseboard using 12mm sides.) Not cheap, but entirely worth it, as all the cuts are square and straight. I am a very satisfied customer of Waterloo Timber in Clitheroe. -

QC faults aside - it is a very good model. £150 for a model without those issues is realistic when compared to the likes of the upcoming Accurascale 55s etc. It is also very good when compared against the lesser specified Bachmann 66 - even when the Bachmann 66 is discounted. £119 is even better value and the near/sub £100 for the imperfect locos is an absolute bargain if you're prepared to spend a few minutes work fettling. I'm sure that Hattons will procure another run - with the QC issues sorted. The gamble will be when to do so - especially when tryin

Don't hold your breath. I've had occasion to contact them on two separate topics in the past 12 months. One took 9 weeks for a response, the other was 11 .........! And both cases required a reminder before a response.

Time for an autorack. I've downloaded a few screenshots of autoracks with full body tagging and then polled a few mates on which one I should attempt. Because they aren't my pics and some were video grabs, I can't post the pics here. I had already taken out my least favourite ones before showing them my short list - and they all chose the same one. First job was a layer of grey primer and then the base coat of acrylic blue. I then stuck a line of masking tape across the roof line and marked off the spacing between the letters comparing them to the pic

Try Luddenden Foot.... And there's no "d" in the pronunciation of Bradford. More like Bratfort with a soft "t" -
