  1. If it has an ESU decoder try this page: http://www.esu.eu/en/downloads/sounds/generation-3/locos-with-loksound/ Scroll to Roco BR232 (it's the same loco with DB number) and click on the + symbol in the table row.
  2. Hi Arran & Charlie, Thanks for sharing the images. The sample is looking fantastic. Can't wait to see it fully assembled and in action.
  3. Cher Alain, I follow your thread since the first posts. I think now it's the time to say what a lovely layout you have built in the last years. The Highlander is a great addition to your layout. Like the layout, train and your videos very much. Guido
  4. Joel Dapol wrote on Dapol's Digest 4 weeks ago: "Perhaps with respect to plates, in future we may print the plates rather than fit an etch. This is far more controllable if there are thousands of models to be produced and these can be say 5% undersized. Modellers can then purchase their own after market parts here in the UK to fit over (if desired)..."
  5. My experience with Olivia's is that the website is not showing the current stock.
  6. You're welcome. I hope everything will be fine with your model. I wait for the DCC fitted ScotRail version. Hope the long delay is a good sign and Dapol is doing a QC this time.
  7. You could try R3Sprays: http://www.r3sprays.co.uk/6177-saltire-scotlands-railways-livery-coach-railroad-p-810.html They had resprayed Hornby Railroad MK2 with 3 or 4 different running numbers in stock (for £60 each). But today just one left.
  8. If you look at the Wikipedia image of 68007 Valiant then you can see that the white spots are also above cab window. But compared with the picture of the other side or end it seems that the prototype has different variations of the applied dots. I think it varies also from engine to engine and this is very expensive to model. So I could live with that without any problem. But angled nameplates, glue marks or untidy applied colors I wouldn't tolerate at this price. And Dapol should see that is a real problem and no fiction.
  9. I am also very dissapointed if the 68s have such quality problems. I had also issues with a brand new class 52 two years ago. The 73s had their issues. That's the reason why I haven't preordered the ScotRail versions. For this it is too much money in my eyes. And it seems to me that Dapol has not learned from the past...
  10. Sandra, I ordered the class 66 too. I'm glad to support the NRM again. Don't know if the postal costs were charged immediatly after I entered my card details ...
  11. I have also bookmarked these shops but I never bought there: http://www.rushvicmodels.co.uk https://www.shadylanemodels.co.uk http://www.kingstrains.co.uk I can confirm Ian's good service (Junction Box). He has very often irresistible prices.
  12. Congratulations Alain! You have built a very nice layout with all the details. I follow your thread since the first post. I hope I find the time to start my own layout thread one day... Cheers from Germany Guido

    EBay madness

    Satisfaction guaranteed: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Skaledale-00-Gauge-Derelict-Barn-Model-/191998228566?hash=item2cb3fc7856%3Ag%3ACj8AAOSwmLlYBAmk
  14. Try this: https://www.collettsmodelshop.co.uk/Hornby-r3579-hitachi-iep-bi-mode-class-800-0-dpts-and-dptf-test-train-power-units-train-pack-limited-edition (£201.99) It is also available for pre-order from other retailers...
  15. Two Hitachis, the Realtrack 156 and a Colas Class 60 announced. That's too much for my credit card. Can anybody send me a pm with his credit card number... ;-) Well done Hornby!
  16. Pre-ordered mine in Abellio branding.
  17. All 156s are in ScotRail livery. But I can't see any price info.
  18. The 156s are on the Realtrack website now...
  19. Charlie, due to the limited number of models: do you offer a pre-order option for those who can not come to Warley? I fear that most models will be sold out after the show...
  20. Green green grass of home - Tom Jones
  21. Kiss on my list - Hall & Oates
  22. Private dancer - Tina Turner
  23. Does anyone know if this shop is still open or if it still exists?
  24. Had the same issue. I ordered 5 weeks ago several items. All items were in stock but got no delivery and no answers to my messages via contact form, email and Paypal. This weekend i will ask Paypal for a refund. Saw on Trustpilot that I am not the only one who has such problems with Osborns. I try to order not at the "big players" whenever possible to support smaller and family businesses. But such a (no) service is not acceptable in my eyes and i will never place an order there again and can not recommend them.
