Yeah should work, might be worth having the debug message window open so you can see what errors the wifi module is reporting.

Yes - I have mine connected in 'client' mode with an DHCP IP reservation on my router so the IP stays consistent. Z21 and Loconet protocols working fine, had a few issues with WiThrottle

Looking forward to mine arriving tomorrow via royal mail. Luckily Mrs Packetlos is away so I wont have any explaining to do... thank you Revolution Trains!

Its a custom respray, £99 is probably on the cheaper end of the scale.

Lets see what they go for when the auction finishes, I guess any EOI response rate depends on how well it is marketed.

I know I keep banging on about this, but no demand for a re-run of these in N?

Will it be here before the Dapol version? 🙂

Tis a shame, I was out of the hobby for a while and missed out on these at the time. I don't see them come up on ebay so the current owners must be happy with them 🙂

Always thought it was strange that arriva traincare have a presence at Tyne for maintaining the cross country voyagers but the grand central units (also owned by DB/Arriva) were serviced at Heaton by northern. The GC 180's are much more common at Tyne these days.

I'd vote for following to go through the shrink ray: Class 37 HYA-IIA Hopper IIA Biomass MHA Ballast Wagon 'Out there vote': Class 325 in 00 and N

@WIMorrison Did you try the WiThrottle protocol? I couldn't get it work with EngineDriver or LocoTouch apps available on Android.

What was the bug?

Does anybody make the network rail yellow panels to bring the older farish JJA's up to date?

Upgraded my DR5000 using the YD9401 module yesterday, received very quickly from DDC train automation. Fairly straightforward upgrade although I had to restart my PC after installing the Yamorc software before the DR5000 was detected and the new license file could be applied. First impressions - being able to use the LAN and the standalone wifi network at the same time with lots of protocols is much more useable, I'm a Loconet user but being able to mess with the Z21 app at the same time is amazing. In summary worth the £60 to bring the DR5000 up to what it probably should have been in the first place.

Karst has created a video showing the upgrade process and the new features, Looks very nice!

Definitely interested, the ability to handle multi protocol overcomes one of the biggest limitations of the DR5000. I wonder if we will ever see the Digikeijs stuff come back in to stock.

I've ended up moving to ESU decoders, I needed railcom functionality so my choices were limited and I find the motor control is just as good if not better.

Here is 92032 returning in the evening, routed on the slow line on a single yellow for Low Fell junction to allow a scheduled LNER service to pass. So passing nice and slow..

Urgh, I don't like it at all. I signed out and cleared cookies etc thinking the site was broken!

Certainly enough space in the corridor end. Speaker pads on the PCB.

The postman brought some toys today, Next-18 decoder socket in each end. The driving car will be getting a Zimo, the trailer any old decoder for the lights.

I would be all over a 325 like a tramp on chips!

How have I missed this before, simply in awe of the skills on show. Andrew
