Hi Guys,

 

Well last night we went up to the clubrooms to just finish putting Hythe up, almost. I say almost because we haven't put up the town scene board, due to us forgetting the little board that attaches it to the platform board!!! http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/public/style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif. We are going up early on wednesday so we can get it up before the AGM starts (as well as playing trains!).

 

We had a couple of problems, 3 points won't work (but surprising the one that was giving us problems worked perfectly! ), but managed to get two of them working though 'wiggling'! One is still causing problems though.

 

As well as this we had one of the scenic boards not working at all. We fixed this by switching a switch, this produced movement but still caused a short, we tracked it down to one point. After starring at it for a couple of minutes and doing nothing, it cleared it self up http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/public/style_emoticons/default/huh.gif (weird in it? or perhaps we scared it into working! http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/public/style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif ). Finally our final problem the lights on the platform board had stopped working. We realised that a couple of wires had been pulled loose, so a couple of minutes with a screwdriver on my back, fixed that problem!

 

Today after going to school, we managed to cut, drill and countersink all but one (we ran out!) the aluminimum sides for our cassettes. We haven't been able to put them together because we left the screw driver and bits up at the club!

 

More on Thursday!

 

Simon
