Instructions for Hornby HM4000 controller help please
yelrow replied to mossdp's topic in Modelling Questions, Help and Tips
Tad doom and gloom, dont you think. Hamment and Morgan built there controllers to last. I have 9 of them, duettes, clippers, HM 2000, in daily use. Never even had a single problem. Been using them for 30 years, and bought then, secondhand. Why would you assume that a newer controller, would have better safety standards. I would love to own one of those controllers. john -
34, hi, sounds as if it could well be a solution. thank you for your rummage. Do you run TT. I have 2 ovals running daily. Will look on line at castle pony, bogie to see how it compares. My emaii, is worleyheather@ aol.com. perhaps we could talk direct. john

Hi, am looking for a front bogie for Triang TT Clan Line, loco , no 35028. I realise that hens teeth, would be easier to find, but it liiks a tad ungainly, when running, without one. Any kind person, have one in their parts box. john

it would help those who cannot get to the the shop, if Ian Allen could be persuaded to sell these bargains on line. That way nobody would mind seeing what was on offer, as we would all be able to join in. Its a tad far from birmingham, to the middle of france and back.

Hi, have Frateschi, Turntable, fully chipped , and for last 3 years, perfect. Decided to re jig, layout, and moved entry point to layout, with new point, etc. Loco runs fine, up to TT, but then shorts. Have checked polarity on TT itself (track ), and 3 roads off far end to loco sheds. They, and TT rail, are totally reversed, EG, bulb lights up on other track. What have i done wrong. thanks. john

Hi, if it was mine, i would send it to Hornby, for updating, Its £15, and they pay return postage, There have been several updates, including the latest, that extends suond functions. When you first turn it on, it shows version, and i imagine, yours is now, well out of date. Had both of mine done recently, well worth it. john

I buy from Janes trains, who have excellent bargains, ans very helpful staff.
-
I can find no fault with the Hornby Elite. It does everything asked of it, and with 3 additional walkabout select controllers, at various points of layout, i have complete control. Elite is fully compliant with regulations.

Here in the middle of Burgandy, its very wet and raining hard. Please keep your English weather to yourselves. Used to better, this time of year. john

somebody else in france. We are in 71130, near Bourbon Lancy. john

Have a look at Tam Valley.
-
Its good, like the new set up. john
-
It makes superb templates. Use it to draw out on.
-
Perhaps 20%. Have 100 plus locos. Problem selling is how much to ask, postage from france to UK, Returns would be a pain. Would need a reason to sell, eg, start 0 gauge for example. Now if anyone living in france, is looking to buy, well ................

WH Smith, and Tesco. john

Key Publishing, selling Hornby 2019 catalogue, plus Hornby magazine for £9.99. Just bought mine. In my case, plus postage to europe was extra cost.

I drew my circle to the correct size by finding a dinner plate, and using that as a template. Then used a jigsaw to cut hole. A wooden handled padsaw, would do the same job, by hand, although a tad more time consuming.
-
they are not trying to bore a big hole, just keep it in one place long enough to make a hole. I accept, you get what you pay for though

25%, 1 in 4 reviews were critical. To me, thats a lot. Amazon , will have had these back, hence the sell off. The original stands, were excellent, i have one, but these look a lot more flimsy. I suppose you pays your money ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
-
Good price, but bad reviews, too much movement in stand, so they say.
-
I am very happy with Hornby one, with extra rollers
-
mIked, hi, thanks, better class of loco, 0 gauge. Does it tell you in your manuel, how to POM, and what controller, do you use. john
-
Hi, thanks. Will need a lot of time to understand all this, but have loaded decoder pro on laptop. Its a pity that my Elite on POM, does not appear to be able to talk to MTH loco. Whatever i do, it remains on 03. Runs and chuffs happily on DC, but nothing works on DCC. Cant be decoder, as cab chat also works on DC.
-
hi, have sprog 2 and 3, and have an MTH loco, that refuses to POM, using my Hornby Elite. Can anyone advise in very simple terms how to set up, and do it, with a Sprog. thanks.
