  1. It has no traction tyres, and bending the rods straight didn't do anything. It happens when the driving axle is in front, so smokebox first. There's little to none sideplay, so that's not it either. And it has done this since running it twice.
  2. Hello! I have a Hornby 0-4-0 class D industrial, one of those cheapey ones. It runs fine in reverse, but when I put it in forward it sort of "wobbles". As in it goes slightly slower and faster every other turn of the wheels. I think it has to do with the connecting rods, but it could be something else. Can someone help? TIA.
  3. Hey, I have a Dapol J94 in which we replaced the old Dapol motor with a Hornby one because the old one was a bit dodgy. Though, the Hornby motor is now interfering with the small mounting bracket in the front. Can I remove this and replace it with something else or can I just leave it out in general? TIA
  4. What does that imply? (Not that well versed in motors, I'm afraid.)
  5. The track layout was specifically designed to be made from the Peco 009 started pack, which is a better deal than buying the track afterwards. But maybe I'll do that idea later.
  6. Looking for a Kato 11-103 for my narrow gauge project that I'm going to be working on in the winter, so no rush. (Netherlands)
  7. I think it’s just a common name for locomotives for locos in general, the GWR has an entire class named Bulldog, so yea.
  8. About the fiddle yard thingy, that's completely right. I mixed it up. I didn't know 009 track existed! Thanks for letting me know. About the weight of the loco, the Kato 11-103 has good slow performance, so that's not an issue. But I think adding a bit of weight wouldn't hurt. Where could I get one of those lead figures for relatively cheap, seeing as I've got a pretty tight budget?
  9. Hello! I’m looking to start building a small 009 fiddle yard in the winter, after I’ve finished my 00 trainset. Would brass suffice for the shell of the loco? Are there any tips or things I should/could add/change? TIA
  10. Yet another idea for a pugbash, this time tall chimney time. Loosely based on this one:
  11. Oh, I'm not really aiming too much for realism. My layout is a preserved line and well, the Y6 isn't preserved!
  12. You're right, but as you said: It will blow my budget. And I already have a spare Caley Pug, so y'know, all I need now is the materials for the rest of the ruddy thing and then I can be on my way.
  13. Ah, I’ve been looking around on the interwebs and I noticed an A4 sheet of plasticard (1mm) thick. Is that good? Or should I go a bit thicker?
