Free At Last

Yes thanks, in 2014 and paid in full over 12 months ago. As it will be sound fitted I still have a short wait for mine.

Patiently awaiting sightings/pictures of the Railmotors.

Have you tried using a dc supply?

But fails to operate like a lever frame which was the op's requirement. I also like to operate my points in a 'normal' and 'reversed' manner, not just left and right or leaving them random in their last state of use.

A home made lever could use a push button or micro switch at the end of each throw, you just push the lever fully one way or the other then release, letting the spring action of the switch break the contact.

I would avoid the Hornby product as it does not operate in the same way the Peco switch does. The Hornby one switches both outputs on each throw of the lever whereas the Peco only switches one and will work better if using a cdu.

Downloaded the W11 iso from MS and deleted the system check files. Hoping this will now update itself.

My only need for a stay alive is to maintain the sound on a loco as it goes through the polarity change gap on my turntable. Good track wiring does not help in that case. My only loco to achieve this is the Accurascale Manor but saying that, the only other 'stay alives' I have are those that come pre-fitted to Zimo decoders, non of them appear to do anything.

Only installs Anti Virus definitions then says you're up to date.

I bought a refurbished Dell last month, is there something I need to do to get it to update?

Your friend is Simon Kohler and I claim my £5.00.

Measuring mine a while back I found I had 13kΩ between the track. Finding no obvious cause of shorts I have put it down to the graphite I use on the track, bridging over the insulated fishplates.

I have just tried on my account, and clicking on the first name, last name and telephone number fields makes them editable but it doesn't happen with the email address field.

Does appear to be.

My wallet breathed a sigh of relief.

Make them yourself and sell them on eBay for a few pence plus postage and put him out of business.

Don't rely on PAR timber having a square edge.

Leaving despatch until next year suits me, as they won't then get bogged down or thrown about with the Xmas post.

Delayed gratification is the resistance to the temptation of an immediate pleasure in the hope of obtaining a valuable and long-lasting reward in the long-term. In other words, delayed gratification describes the process that the subject undergoes when the subject resists the temptation of an immediate reward in preference for a later reward that is more favourable. Generally, delayed gratification is associated with resisting a smaller but more immediate reward in order to receive a larger or more enduring reward later. I'd sooner we talk about the Manor.

You need to turn the volume right up.

Would it coast forever? None of my other sound locos do it, when they reach the slower speed setting the exhaust beats pick up again.
