I keep getting the following message when trying to load Wheeltappers “This community is temporarily unavailable” has anyone any ideas as to why? Been doing it for past two days. thanks for any help Mike

Yes it’s a Wood turning lathe and as someone who does a bit of wood turning and owns two lathes I would not go for a machine like that, if you really want to have a go look for a small second hand lathe maybe from someone who is up grading to a bigger machine. There are a number of these cheap lathes around in different styles but they are not up to the task in hand.

Had that happen a few years back , got in touch with xuron over in the USA and they sent out a new pair, did have to put track work on hold for a few weeks while they made their way across the pond though

Thank you all for your most helpful replies, most appreciated Mike

Hi, has anyone got a picture of the back of this kit? All the photos I can find online only show one side . Thanks for any info Mike

I have digital but started using my old Nikon 35mm camera again a couple of years ago for landscape shots wanted something that you had to stop and think is it worth use of the film instead of just clicking away with the digital

Thank you that's the one thing that never entered my head

Good afternoon I wonder if anyone can shred some light on this problem. Layout has not been run for around 6 months,removed stock cleaned track put stock back all fine except the Dapol class 68 fitted with above decoder. Lights came on but no motor control. Removed decoder tested on dc loco runs fine put decoder back no joy, put on programming track says cannot read decoder. Am using NCE POWERCAB. Thoughts are that for some reason decoder is dead but would like to here your opinion Cheers Mike

Thank you both for your most helpful replys Mike

Good morning has anyone fitted a decoder to the above model (it does not have a socket) if so what did you use as there is not much space inside. thanks for any help. Mike

Thank you, that's just what I wanted to know, cheers mike

Morning all does anyone know the measurements of this kit? as am looking to use one but it's to go in a tight space hence need to know the size of it. thanks for any info. Mike

You could try the Army Medical services museum for info as they had a preserved ambulance coach on display at their base in Ash near Aldershot a few years back, not sure if they have moved since then but they should have records of stock numbers

Thank you all for the very useful information cheers Mike

Good morning, advice please. layout is single track modern image to small station no run round. with a turnout just before station into maintenance depot what would the right signaling be for the turnout into depot. Would I use a 2 aspect with feather or twin aspect one for station and one for yard entry, or have I got it completely wrong (more than likely) and need something else
