Surely it would need to change the frequency based on the scale speed of the train, and also take the scale speed of the train into account when changing the frequency. 🤪 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold MikeParkin65 Posted June 28, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 28, 2022 Talking of yellow has anyone got a match for the GSYP nose? D9020 has the upper handrail incorrectly I believe in green (as was evident on the Hornby mag D9013 but appears to have been changed on the production version).

RMweb Gold zr2498 Posted June 28, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 28, 2022 Am I having just bad luck or what! Black Watch sent back as many parts off, and the speaker vibration. Pinza sent back as a few parts off and flat spot on wheels (now I know it possibly could have been glue on a wheel which was fixable). Both are being replaced - great service from AC but now DHL are delaying delivery and I can't get an answer from them? St Paddy seemed to be going really well with no parts detached and silky smooth runner, but alas the dreaded speaker vibration (bracket screws missing). Just checked Royal Highland Fusilier which arrived today - via Rails - only one corner step detached (no problem), silky smooth runner but again the speaker vibration. As above no screws in the speaker bracket that can be seen under the roof cover. Furthermore zero paperwork in the box. Clearly not checked by Rails? Seems to be a battle but hopefully I will win the war. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a switch on the real thing so should be an on off function on the model. IRL the light may be switched on while the train is in motion. As you say if it was being used whilst stationary there’s no way it would go off at the split second it starts to move (the driver has other things on his mind at that point). 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My layout is automated so having a cab light go off when the loco moves is a good thing, but I also am happy enough to program it myself. And I also know it's not 100% realistic but moreso than not having a cab light or having it on all the time.
