  9. Hi Ron, What you need is a Sig-na-trak DTM30 30 channel Super Tower Master. Layout and Accessory Control : DTM30 30 Channel Super Tower Master (signatrak.co.uk) Have used them on a couple of layouts with Tortoise motors and Digirtrax DS64's Make your panel add two led's per turnout and one push button. Take a look at their website lots of info there. Cheers Ian
  10. Much work completed on 'Durham Street' 'O' gauge in readiness for the show, we look forward to meeting friends old and new. Thanks to Tony Wright for photo. Thanks from al at Scarborough & District Railway Modellers.
  11. Can't wait for the release of this loco, we had four of them here in Scarborough, my late farther in law was a driver at Scarborough and would be driving them on a regular basis. It's interesting that two of the four 82027 and 82029 are being produced by Lionheart. Ian H Scarborough

  13. Many thanks to all who supported our show, I'm pleased to say it was a huge success. We had a good turnout after what has been a very trying time over the past two years. I'm sorry if you found it a bit cramped on Saturday but hey, that's normal for a Saturday. Calmed down on the Sunday with a steady flow of visitor's through the door. Many thanks to all our exhibitors, demonstrators and traders for their support. After the success of this year's show we are now looking forward to holding the show again same time next year. Here's to our next show at Pickering over weekend of 21/22nd August. Thanks Ian Harper Show Manager Scarborough & District Railway Modellers
