  1. I dont know that it is, but the loco is behaving like it has. With the lights on the loco functions exactly as youd expect with F28 engaged. For example if i press F21 - the engine starts as it does with F22 - F24
  2. Anyone whose fitted the Dapol Class 73 can i ask if youre directional lights work correctly? Ive got a later Intercity 73 136. With the Dapol imperium decoder i get independant control of the cab lights and blinds either end. But with the TXS fitted F0 dosent control any of the lighting. I do get lights on F22 but it also seems to engage the F28 mode as it starts up horns before moving and does the brake sound when stopping. Also then, the sound wont turn off agasin using F1?
  3. Hi any update on these. Only asking as it says end of june on my order page :)
  4. Are these images available online?
  5. Update via ROS https://railsofsheffield.com/blogs/news/Bachmann-update-class-25?fbclid=IwAR2t5y0MevmibquRnA0E23f5jbiY5nXXpiMi3UjawYLdlKs8XUntlrJCPoI
  6. Yup, if i buy points or flexi the first thing im normally asked is do you need fishplates? DCC ready loco, Do you need a decoder? Easy upsells.
  7. Bachmanns website says the green 32-492SF Class 40 has arrived. So far tho ive not seen it at any of the retaillers
  8. Did you unlink the decoders from the first device before using them with the 2nd device? I got an email with a reset code when i first instaslled mine, took a few attempts at putting the code in and power cycling but it did work in the end
  9. I wonder if this is the competitor model Hornby got wind of that made them upgrade there model? Wouldnt be suprised to see a prduction HST in the future
  10. Fairly sure the A1 only went on sale in the last few days
  11. 11.50 is an odd time. Maybe its a clue? If it was 11.48 id have said n gauge. Has to be something in the national collection id imagine.
  12. Fitted a Hornby 21 pin TXS decoder to mine and it runs and sounds really good. With the power bank theres no stuttering at all. Really pleased with it :)
  13. Are they on the 37/4? I dont recall seeing a F key for it on my Concrete Bob.
  14. So ive installed mine. The class 56 installed without a hitch. Updated the decoder at the beginning then loaded the 56 sound profile all within 10 mins. Runs and sounds really good. The class 73 im having trouble with. Updated the decoder to begin with. Failed first time but was fine 2nd time. The 73 sound profile has so far installed twice, but getting no sound or movement. Takes a good deal longer to install as well. Now trying for a 3rd time but with the power bank removed. The decoder does work as i quickly checked it before linking it to the app and it chuffed away merrily. EDIT : Failed again. So then ive decided to try a different profile as im sure ive read somewhere that the 73 profile is problematic. Tried the deltic and the and the 08 sound and both installed first time. I do however seem to have a broken speaker as its all crackly and the sound breaks up. Just left it installing the 73 profile for the 4th time. EDIT : .... And failed for a 4th time! EDIT : After a few more tries i tried it on my phone and this time it worked. Only thing i could do with is a new speaker now
  15. My 2 decoders have arrived. Waiting to recieve them are a Dapol 73 and a Hornby 56. Off to Toby Carvery now mind, so fitting will have to wait until later on.
  16. Ive tested a few other locos on the first radius as a redesign means the locos need to go over a first radius curve to exit the engine shed roads. All the following are fine : Accurascale 37, Hornby 56, Hornby new tooled Flying Scotsman and Dapol 73
  17. Cheers in the end i swapped it out for a Dapol imperium which ive managed to to remap
  18. Not all, theres no class 20 there. IMO the best one.
  19. Its the blue one that came in a blister pack. Possibly esu made
  20. Its arrived and ive fitted it with a Bachmann 21 pin decoder for now. Just need to figure out to how to remap F2 to F4 so the tail lights stay on.
  21. Hi ive just fitted a Bachmann 21 pin decoder to a new Hornby class 56 Currently F2 turns on the tail lights, but as im using a Prodigy controller F2 dosent latch so how do i remap it to F4? Ive managed to do it on a factory fitted Dapol 73 with the imperium as the instructions with the loco told me how to remap from F2 to F4. Is it the same CVs on all decoders?
  22. Ive got 2 devices i can install it on A lenovo M7 tablet or a samsung Galaxy S20 phone Given the S20 is on the incompatible list would i be better tryng it on the tablet? I do have it installed on the s20 and logged in to my account on it but havent tried anything decoder wise as i was curious what makes it incompatible given its fine on the older S9 and the newer S21?
