RMweb Premium Compound2632 Posted November 10, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 10, 2019 (edited) 2 hours ago, Worsdell forever said: some timber. See p. 11, diagram no. 1, 2 wagon set. Although that's a BR document, the LNWR instructions (LNWR Wagons Vol. 1 Appendix 3) are pretty much identical, so presumably represents best practice generally. (Thanks to the Barrowmore Model Railway Group for making this document available.) At some point I'm going to have to load a 3-set (LNWR D12 + D13) in such a way that it stays on the rails and goes round curves!

RMweb Gold Worsdell forever Posted December 3, 2019 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted December 3, 2019 Managed to get a start tonight on jobs that were noted at Newcastle. The first is the electrical connections on the lights, these were never very good, the chocolate blocks never seemed to be all that reliable, the wires were too short and I was forever reconnecting them. Hopefully this will sort them. From this... To this... The link from the FY board needs a plug and socket but it will be simplified. This is a mess... This is getting better. The two strips of LEDs were wired separately as the both had remote dimmers but as these were both on the same frequency they have never been used so the 2 strips are being wired together to simplify things even more, it will also make it easier to add another strip, which may well happen. Also don't forget to nominate your favourite NER, EM gauge layout set on the Rosedale branch in the BRM awards... 19 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Worsdell forever Posted January 1, 2020 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted January 1, 2020 Got the rest of the lighting wiring sorted today, and I've added another strip along the front which should help light the rear of the layout a bit more and hopefully get rid of the War of the worlds tripods. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Worsdell forever Posted January 1, 2020 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted January 1, 2020 Thought I'd fit one of these to stop it flopping about when it's folded up and I'm trying to carry it.

Martync Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Paul I have just come across this epic thread!! What a splendid layout. Is there any chance The Depots might venture further south at any time?? The arrival of the Bachman J72 has re awakened an interest in North East railways which originates from a family link with Durham - my great uncle was estate manager at Brancepeth Castle in the 30's. Maybe a small mineral line might be the thing - I wouldn't have space for anything large, so it would have to be a la Croft Depot I think!
