Very broad interests but perhaps focused more on BR Midland - Derbyshire, Notts and Lincs areas in late 50s/60s - Wirksworth, Buxton, Cromford & High Peak in particular - Also GC Main Line around Nottingham + any Industrial railways (NG and Standard). Old enough to remember C&HP in working order, Trent Junction Station, Derby Works in full flow, Windcutters at Nottm Victoria, prototype Deltic at Grantham and a few other things I miss.A believer in modelling to capture the feeling/atmosphere of the time/prototype even if some details are not correct and of the right to run what I like.
After a demo by Digitrains I bought a DCC Concepts Cobalt Central. Brilliant! Connects straight on to my NCE system and controls all the points without doing anything else. It's my wedding anniversary pressie from the wife - I'll tell her tomorrow!
No, all Tortoises controlled by NCE Switch 8s. System was controlled from Powercab. Just plugged DCC CEntral into NCE socket and, lo, points all works from the central. Too easy!
