RJS1977

has had a good "blitz" on his father's layout. Station footbridge steps completed, approx 40 reed switches installed and relays fitted and wired for the three arm starter signal on Platform 4 -- but still some electrical gremlins to resolve!

has nearly finished planning his "new" Austrian layout. All I have to work out now is how to hide a point motor....

Doh! just discovered that the Streamline point I bought to replace the one that I broke while fitting the point motor is 5mm longer than the old one! How did that happen?

Swindon or Woking tomorrow? Hmmm....

has had a very enjoyable wheel cleaning session this evening and has also spotted why all the loco depot sections were dead!

has just had a very good running session. Few minor niggles to sort out but mostly just down to general maintenance.

Just discovered that the 009 Y point I bought today is shorter than the N-gauge point it's replacing so I need to cut a short length of track to fit. Also remembered I'm out of rail joiners, having seen some on a stand today and thought I didn't need any! Duh!

Sorry - only just seen the replies! I will try to get some photos of it up here. Yes, it was one of the Guinness locos, now at the Cholsey and Wallingford Railway with the 08s 'Lion' and 'Unicorn' which replaced it. Sister locomotive 'Walrus' is at Quainton Road.

has almost completed construction of Hibberd 0-4-0DM 'Carpenter' - just painting to go!
