Gordon H Posted February 14, 2012 Share Posted February 14, 2012 As long as the last few gasps of my efforts go today come to fruitition, we should have a compliment of signals going. Indeed, if I can tap up some of the MERG guys at either Watford or Glasgow, lets see if we can make them bounce....... I will have the facilities to do this for you at Nottingham if you don't get it sorted beforehand. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Portchullin Tatty Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I will have the facilities to do this for you at Nottingham if you don't get it sorted beforehand. You may be on. I have just got them going on simple mode and was proposing to rest on my laurels that far for a bit. I now understand that I need to reprogramme the chip, which is not something I can do on my own so some assistance would be welcome. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sixteen 12by 10s Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 Hi All Spent the week going through Glenuig's ssnagginglist. Not all that much needed doing but, I have got rid of one irritating dip in the track, which should solve a few S&W uncoupling problems. See you all at Nottingham, but I have Macclesfield to get through next week. Gary Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
great central Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 For the benefit of the early arrivals the snack bar at the show will be open from 08.00, serving bacon and sausage cobs, beans on toast etc They will also have tea, coffee, etc available. Or you can buy a bottle of pop from one of the machines. Some people buy drinks from the machine just to watch it in operation So you can get a parking space then have a bite to eat before the show opens. You can also watch bemused as several people, possibly including yours truly, running around sorting those last minute niggles that always happen Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold bcnPete Posted March 3, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 3, 2012 Thanks Jamie and Gary for the teaser photos...even though I can't fly back for this one, I hope there is a shed load of photos posted after the show as it looks like it will be a cracker.

Galtee More Posted March 3, 2012 Author Share Posted March 3, 2012 Scottish Themed Grouping 2012 It seems that over the years we've become well known for our Scottish Themed Groupings. We’ve always tried to select the layouts on the basis of their quality. This year will be no exception and we’ve tried really hard to bring you the very best once again ! One of our members thought it would be a good idea to build some baseboards and, at the show, join them all up. Then it was pointed out to him that, excellent as they undoubtedly all were, this year’s Scottish layouts were in three different scales and five different gauges ! Here’s this year’s line-up: Fisherrow Yard - 7mm scale/O - 1970s - by Ian Futers Portchullin - 4mm scale/P4 - 1970s - by Mark Tatlow - See Above Culreoch - 4mm scale/EM - 1960s - by Jamie Wood - See Above Glenuig - 4mm scale/EM - 1980s - by Gary Hinson - See Above Bannochbrae - 4mm scale/OO - 1960-1970s - by Roger Nicholls Loch Oran - 2.0625mm/N - 1990s - by BARMATES (Bridlington) No less than three of the six layouts are being exhibited by RM Webbers, so come along and say hello.

Timara Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 As long as the last few gasps of my efforts go today come to fruition, we should have a compliment of signals going. Indeed, if I can tap up some of the MERG guys at either Watford or Glasgow, lets see if we can make them bounce....... Ah good. Should be nice to use more than just two or three levers at last! Incidentally, I've got those board-board connectors I promised I'd bring along. Bring some terminal block....... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
