Many thanks to McC for his contact, it is appreciated. What do you suggest to "reach out" please? I know there have been comments on here about the blanking plug, but of course I would imagine that is not a universal answer? Anyway, thanks again & please message me and let me know your suggestion/s. Many thanks in advance, rxmoordave

Hi Ray, (Silver Sidelines), I'm glad I'm not the only one to be a little disappointed by the start & stop characteristics of the Manor. Mine does exactly the same (DC) - a sudden start, rather than a gradual, slow respionse (ditto sudden stop-in reverse obviously!), and that is after carefully running in using Gaugemaster controllers. I have mentioned this previously and confess to still feeling let down slightly. I may be fussy, but after paying a high price for a newly designed loco, it should be possible - and expected - that the performance should be faultless - or as near as is possible to achieve. I have other steam models from both Hornby & Bachmann, which are much older and they display excellent performance throughout their range.

CORRECTION......... A friend has brought to my attention the fact that EXMOOR RAIL is listed in BRM as taking place on Saturday 5th August 2024. Now if this was my fault and I wrote & posted this info while intoxicated, then I sincerely apologise. However, I have double-checked my email which I sent on 1st April (April fool???!!!) to BRM and all the info listed was correct, so I am left wondering what has happened???!!! It's compounded by the fact that 5th August this year is on a MONDAY......!!!!! So, just to reiterate - EXMOOR RAIL 2024 is taking place this year on Saturday 1st June, from 10.00am to 4.30pm. I may need a liedown in a darkened room now until I find out what happened??????
