MossdaleNGauge

Thanks for including Mossdale Road. My “fifteen minutes of fame” was very quickly squashed, no idea who David Campbell is that was mentioned in the program and the video, a minor typo by AIMREC.

Had a great time this weekend displaying Mossdale Road for the first time. The layout and trains performed well, with Saturday being a DC day and Sunday DCC, lots of friendly chats about the trains and scenery. A good exhibition although I didn’t get to see all of it. Dave

One way to get around this is not to sell completed items but as kits for home assembly. May be get all the surface mount components fitted at the factory, leaving the end user to solder all the standard size pieces.

The new office building by the Otford tracks that you have modelled superbly was on TV this week. In the ITV drama about the Post Office scandal it was used as the building for Futijsu’s head office. Other scenes were also in Kent, the village hall was at Pratts Bottom, and is used for an annual model railway show, Tatsfield for the Post Office/cafe and St Mary Cray High St with its large brick viaduct Dave

This is my attempt at the Dornoch station kit in N gauge, no layout for it yet, just a 27 and some mk1’s so far.

Just watched the latest episode of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver, it’s about safety on American railways and their level crossings. It should appear on YouTube soon, or on catch up on VirginMedia. On the list of priorities for running their railways, safety is in fourth place. The show ends with a very well made Thomas style remake featuring a huge crash with HO gauge trains.

The unit is probably supplied with the links not attached as that is the safest way, the links can then be fitted as required. Yours looks secondhand as it has signal number, so I suspect the technician removed the links when it was decommissioned and kept the links as spares. It does look good on your wall, I could do with a half size one outside my room’s door. Dave.

The returns are commoned on terminals 2, 4 & 6, any of these can be used. The lamp selection terminals are 1 & 5 depending on which aspect is required.

It was good to see it tackling the climb to the North Downs in the sun, but just a little bit too dark on its return. http://The Armistice Kentish Belle London Victoria - Sheerness at Knockholt and St Mary Cray Junction https://youtu.be/HUgZ6HQckU4

My first attempt at a Pop Up Design model, it’s Dornoch Station in N gauge. Dave

More so, if you can find an empty seat in the old first class part of a 465/9

Nothing that new around here, the 465 Networkers are now 31 years old with no replacement planned. Photo from here https://www.fromthemurkydepths.co.uk/2022/10/10/southeastern-networker-trains-reach-30-years-old-this-week2/

Sorry, new to this thread. Anything with a short wheelbase would fail to be detected by the track circuit whenever it went over the original style of delta track circuit which needed an isolated short length of section rail for its own purposes. Hope the picture explains this.
