Hi Folks, I have an older Farish N gauge Class 08 shunter (model no: 371-004A) in BR blue. It's around 13 years old, plain old DC and was bought brand new in the box. It's barely been used and unfortunately it's not been run for a few years. The last time it was run (last year) it needed a wee prod to get moving (or more like gently push down on the body) and then once going was fine until you stopped it, then once again you'd need to prod to get moving. The model has never been dismantled except for last night to see if there was anything obviously wrong (checking that the pickups etc are contacting the wheels etc). Now it doesn't seem to want to run at all. The loco has always been stored in its original box and in a dust free average temp/humidity environment (i.e. your standard UK house). There's absolutely no signs of life. I don't think there's a short as the DC (H&M Duet) controller isn't grumbling when the power is turned up. The controller is fine as it runs other DC locos perfectly. I'm comfortable with fixing this myself and know my way around a meter and soldering iron. So.... Where can I obtain a service sheet or wiring diagram for this model? Google has failed me here. Has anyone got any ideas as to what might have gone awry with this loco? Thanks, Kevin
