  1. I placed my first order with rails at new year - service was excellent - fast dispatch and well packed item at a very good price. Will certainly buy from them again online. Will also try to visit shop at some point. I have also bought used goods from their ebay shop - same great service.
  2. The Bachmann 36-151 has an 8 pin socket hidden away under the load. The box is clearly marked 8DCC and the Bachmann web site also clearly shows that it has an 8 pin socket. There is limited space under the load for the decoder. The load is metal and needed for the weight so a lightweight replacement load to give more room for the decoder is not practical. A small decoder is required. I have not yet decoded which to buy. The model I purchased new had no instructions at all.
  3. I don't think SLW actually produce a Class 24/1 so Bachmann may go ahead with theirs
  4. I notice that Hattons are once more offering DCC fitting on the trolley having withdrawn the service a few weeks ago
  5. I have a Peco packing case that is big enough to hold a DCC22 decoder and small enough to sit on top of the ballast in the Wickham trailer. If I cut a hole in the ballast to put the wires through and make it look as though the case is "in" the ballast does anybody think this might be a suitable method of hiding the decoder? I have not taken the trailer to bits yet so am not sure exactly what the layout is under the ballast. Any suggestions or comments.
  6. I pre ordered the maroon version with Hattons with DCC fitting. Once in stock they phoned me and told me they could not DCC fit and did I still want the unfitted version which I did. I am now, like most others, trying to decide how to fit the decoder. Currently thinking about modifying the load in the trailer.
  7. Preiser 14084 figures will do the job as well. Available from Peters Spares and others on ebay
