    Thanks for the reply John ,should have been a bit more clearer, when I press the F button they come on but when I release it they go off ,is there any cv I can reset to leave them on when the button is pressed I use a Powercab and a signatrak system HTH.

    A team from my local club has entered and been accepted they have a rule book to comply with, a budget to buy materials etc, and are being supplied with a ready built base board, I think that the filming is taking place in June over 3 days ,should be interesting viewing!!!

    Hi Gordon yes you get three lengths of Peco 16mm track and a bag of hard plastic sleepers which have to be threaded onto the track and the plastic is a very tight fit on the track ! worth it in the end tho !

    just got some of this and there seems to be plenty of glue and iron filings but not much developer (blue corrosive stuff) anyone know what it is and if its available separately didn't want to buy lots more filings and glue just to get more developer!

    Now that the cat is out of the bag I can see that those lucky people" Dahn sarf "have got a nice Adams radial to look forward to! wonder if there is going to be a Brecon and Merthyr Liveried one ???

    you will probably need to use a larger screw for the tender coupling to be fitted to the Loco as the old Hornby electrical contact /coupler was a smaller diameter ,put a self trapper into mine .
