F6 delivers DCC track power jolt to user to keep them awake. I thought F6 was a collie barking and the sound of hooves disappearing into the distance. Do you mean it's been changed. 1 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woodenhead Posted October 31, 2023 Share Posted October 31, 2023 @Captain Kernow Perhaps the sheep is quite happy on it's own with a lovely supply of food and a nice woolly coat. Some people choose to be alone, I am sure sheep can have similar personalities. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the easiest thing in the world to go up onto the moors, knock off a sheep, but tying it on the back of the motorbike and getting back into town unnoticed is quite another.

Wayne 37901 Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Evening Rob, Nice as always to catch up at the shop, I've been back a few pages in this thread and things seem to be ticking along nicely. As I said, I've started the board for my NCB project and it now has a thread on here. If you ever get bored enough to read my junk then I'll post the link below and I'll look forward to any sage advice or input, thoughts, opinions, abuse etc that you may be able to offer. Cheers, Wayne 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A (very) former colleague came back from watching the TT races one year complaining that the IoM police had pulled him over and offered words of advice regarding the sheep he had as a pillion passenger.

RMweb Gold NHY 581 Posted November 1, 2023 Author RMweb Gold Share Posted November 1, 2023 Well, this is NOT an early start to the new project. Nope. It's more of a self generated challenge. You hear many modellers bemoan the lack of available space hence why they are unable to fit a layout into the house. I saw these today. They each measure 53cm x 30 cm overall. They have their own legs which obviously fold under and will sit on a large dining table or even on the floor. There are clearly a number of compromises to be made but I reckon it's possible to build a perfectly satisfying shunting layout using these little tables. And do it relatively quickly.............
