Andrew P Posted May 22, 2018 Author Share Posted May 22, 2018 Today I've re worked the Fiddle Yard for a straighter run in and also lengthened the 2 inner roads to accommodate the Parcels and one set of Passenger Stock. I've also back dated the Stock again to late 70's early 80's. 15 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KNP Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Very impressive, once again more stock on view that poor old LM. Might see what I can get at Railex on Sunday.....you never know! Still find it very confusing with that canal board stored over the fiddle yard but I suppose the days of limboing under the layout to get through the door are in the dim and distant past......for us both I might hasten to add!!!

Thanks Kevin, I still have the Milk Train, China Clay Hoods and the Fish Train to find a home for yet. It's many years since I could do a Limbo under anything, so yes it's an ideal place to store the door board. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol Yes as much as I would like one, my loops aren't long enough to accommodate more than 6 Coaches, including the 2 Power Cars so, IMHO would look a bit naff. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Focalplane Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 Hi Andy Not much help really, but the last few times I travelled on the Paddington Oxford Worcester line the HSTs had dropped one of the first class coaches - no call for large seats on the Cotswold Line perhaps. Also, what first class coaches they still have don't line up with the shorter platforms, such as Moreton-in-Marsh. So I suppose if you pay for first class they think you should have to walk down the train to keep fit. The videos look great, by the way!

Paul Thanks Paul, in the 80's HST's were only on the Paddington - Penzance Route anyway I think, and were probably 8 or 9 in the formation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew P Posted May 24, 2018 Author Share Posted May 24, 2018 (edited) I've received the 21 to 8 pin convertors from DCC Concepts and today fitted the Sound Chip to 44004 with a Bass Speaker, sounds quite good. I will pop it on the next Video. Whilst testing it, I found I've suddenly got some D E A D Track?????? Will need to look at that some time.

As my sections are all individual, it can only be one wire, and I already know it's a Black one, as I bridged a Track Gap and it came alive, so DCC has made it easier.

Andrew P Posted May 26, 2018 Author Share Posted May 26, 2018 Hi Andy I would still check all the solder joints. And fish plates. Yeah, to be fair, it was just one line in the Depot, which is fed from a joiner wire from the next Track, that was alive the other day, when the Fuel Line was dead, so if it goes again, it's fairly easy to sort. OR...………..RIP THE WHOLE LAYOUT OUT AND FLOG OFF THE BITS. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Clive Mortimore Posted May 26, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted May 26, 2018 Garden Railway ? NO It is for Mrs M's 'orses. I don't like gardening so the thought of having to keep plant and wild life off the train set scares me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
