Hi To get the tail lights on mine I have to press f1 but I am using a self fitted decoder non sound. From memory when originally setup mine had one end on f1 and the other on f2 but I changed it to both on f1 controlled by the direction of travel. Forward lights are on f0. Cheers Paul

Hi Is that for people with DCC handsets that only do 10 locos as that is showing the number 6. Cheers Paul

Hi That's 76008 not 76003 as 76003 never received MU cables as 76003 Cheers Paul

Hi Yes I found it strange that something I have been waiting for since about 2016 has appeared in all the other scales including TT/3mm but not N/2mm. Very annoying / frustrating. Cheers Paul

Hi Is it? Other things have taken longer in the past and probably will in the future. At the end of the day it is a toy train not life and death. Cheers Paul

Hi I re uploaded the images here after the photos disappeared last year. Cheers Paul

Hi Minor correction its the A18 not A16 past the airport at Humberside. Cheers Paul

Hi https://revolutiontrains.com/projects/ Cheers Paul

Hi I bought a new car recently and changed the plates for my personalised ones, this change was done online. There was warning on the DVLA website that it would be with immediate effect and to have the new plates ready to put on the vehicle. The new details didn't appear online for three days but I had all the necessary paperwork if I was stopped by the Police. Cheers Paul

Hi Safari on an iPad running iOS 16.5 also does this and has done for a long while. Cheers Paul

Hi I think that is the trick to all the cars that use a wireless ignition. Mine certainly is and it’s in the manual. Cheers Paul

Hi You could take a look at this. I don't believe you have to be a member to read it. https://www.merg.org.uk/content/ebook Cheers Paul

Hi I had mine done last week partly because of this thread and partly the constant adverts on TV / Radio,it was like the universe was trying to tell me something. Luckily for me the test was negative. Cheers Paul

Hi I can give you my reason and its because I'm colour blind so can't see the subtly of the shades. Cheers Paul

Hi Depends on the chocolate. This is quite nice https://www.amazon.co.uk/Dark-Chocolate-85-Mini-Units/dp/B08NQY8R7R/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3KFFYMK7EB9ZD&keywords=tirma+85%&qid=1686138206&sprefix=tirma+85%%2Caps%2C105&sr=8-1 Cheers Paul

Hi Sorry I have to take issue with that comment. You would have to eat a lot of chocolate to get yourself into a coma although not impossible. It is more dangerous as a diabetic to have a low blood sugar rather than a high one. High blood sugars cause long term issues but low blood sugar can have you in a coma very quickly. I am a diabetic and have been for over forty years. Cheers Paul

Hi I too got the email and ignored it, my premium membership still works as before. These are the first renewals for this type of membership so I guess some tweaking of the email content is required. Cheers Paul

Hi Depends which memory size as these were 4Gb. I wasn't allowed to order a bare one but I can have a Pi4 with their essentials kit. I wanted to upgrade my Picade to a Pi4 so don't need all the other bits. Essentials kit https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/raspberry-pi-4-essentials-kit?variant=40110476132435 The ordering rules https://shop.pimoroni.com/pages/ordering-restrictions-for-raspberry-pi I didn't qualify as the account I used to have with all my purchases was removed and I had to create a new account a while back. Cheers Paul

Hi Pimoroni had some Pi4s a couple of weeks ago but you had to fit their eligibility criteria to order one. Cheers Paul

Hi We managed to see it over Manby on its way to Strubby, I guess it was about five minutes behind schedule. Cheers Paul

Hi Unfortunately I won’t be at York due to other commitments. I can probably help with the Gloucester MkIVs if you are happy with the version I used. Please feel free to contact me off list to discuss. Cheers Paul

Hi I wouldn’t personally go that route as they are completely different. It’s quite easy to build from plasticard as the sides are very flat. The roof was time consuming as I filed it from a solid block for strength. The transfers are available from Railtec. On a different subject how are the BOC tanks coming along. Mine have stalled as I need to sort out the transfers. Cheers Paul

Hi Mainly plasticard with some etched parts, brass strip and wire. This is the only photo I have from building it which was back in 2014. Cheers Paul

Hi Scratchbuilding is also an option if you want a 1/148 version. Cheers Paul

Hi It was also on Look North last week. Cheers Paul
