    I've sorted the issue out. You need to have a push button in every slot on the alpha switch board for the encoder to work. Bit strange because I now have 4 redundant buttons inside the control panel but atleast it is working. I tried to call them Saturday but it said there phone line was closed.

    I'm trying to link three alpha encoders together to run the alpha switch system with digital IP motors with a sniffer power supply. Only the encoder connected to the sniffer is changing points, the other two are connected with the input output plugs but will not change any points. can anyone help?

    Please shrink the box size on these! I have quite a few ordered.
  4. GBRf66701
    Great news. Please make the box smaller this time. I'm running out of room!

    The lining looks really crooked on those FGW power cars.
  6. GBRf66701
    I've just seen in the latest issue of Hornby mag a sample of the new tooling FGW fag packet mk3 and it appears the lining is a waterslide transfer again. It's not sitting down properly over the raised detail and looks awful. Hornby please stop using waterslide decals. Even Lima managed tampo lining and looks far better.

    Hi Fran, Do you know if this has been corrected by the factory on the production batch? thanks
  8. GBRf66701
    I've had a look at my original batch ones and they are definitely tampo printed. They have no carrier film around the edges of the lines.

    Just had a look at the new FGW mk3 coaches and it appears Hornby have used waterslide transfers for the dynamic lines and they've not been applied very well at all. They are wonky and have carrier film silvering.

    Got my 66004 today. Absolutely superb model. Hopefully the triple grey GBRf 66's may be next.

    It's a possibility. The ground level door lock appears to be green which I don't think these had. Shame really. Looks pretty awful. Maybe another round of re bodies from Hornby? And there has been a price increase on these too.

    Just picked up the last run LNER hst mk3 coaches and it appears to have a painted blue line down the centre of the coach.
  13. GBRf66701
    You are correct. I have checked a few YouTube videos and the grill is not present. Mystery solved. Thanks

    It's the etched bit that should wrap around the exhaust. It's there on all the previous runs of Bachmann 150's. It's missing of both cars.
  15. GBRf66701
    Are the heat protection grills around the exhaust pipes missing on anyone else's? Is this how there supposed to be on the more modern livery versions? They are missing on mine.

    It's a 4mm scale wagon conversion. I've looked at foxes and they only have the older plasmor logos unfortunately.
  17. GBRf66701
    Does anyone know if Railtec produce suitable transfers for the Plasmor PNA/POA wagons? I am 3D printing a conversion kit to make the Plasmor block train but cannot find appropriate data panels or the Plasmor logo.

    Which pack is exclusive to your website?

    I'm looking for a set of four side grills for the Hornby class 31. Specifically the ones shown in photo. Cheers

    I'm looking for an A1 Models class 411 refurbished brass sides kit if anyone has one to sell. Cheers Matt

    Agreed this is a shame. Maybe hattons should have given a shout out that orders were too low to proceed then everyone who wanted one but hasn't yet ordered (including me) would have got our orders in.
  22. GBRf66701
    HI Dave The coaches look brilliant, will these be available to hattons wholesale stockists?
  23. GBRf66701
    I’ve tried these CV’s and it now works a treat. Thank you all for your help with this. It was driving me mad trying to figure it out. cheers Matt
  24. GBRf66701
    Those are frog wires and are only needed if you are going to use micro switches to change the polarity of the power in the crossing of the point. They can be used on analogue or dcc. They just stop small locos stalling on the point.

    I have fitted an ESU Loksound V5.0 decoder with one of there power pack keep alives and it doesn't seem to be storing any power. I have tried the power pack on another decoder and it works fine. Are there any cv's that need adjusting to get it to work? Matt
