Morning all, my vast apologies if I've missed the posts on this one, I'm sure I'd read somewhere that the Class 92 sound chips will be available seperately, I have 92010 just standard analogue but I've also got 92020 & 036 with DCC sound onboard. I've absolutely fallen in love with the sound suite & want to get 92010 equipped, I know the none sound chips are available from the Accurascale website but can't see any option for a sound chip. I think I read somewhere that LegoManBiffo is offering these but wanted to be sure before I purchased one from him. On checking the DC kits website I see he has several options available to purchase so which of these would I pick to have the same sound & functions the Accurascale one comes with as standard, also is it a relatively easy job to fit them? Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

Kind regards.

What are they using for RHTTs in the places they were specifically used for (around Yorkshire I think?) now?

Probably be 66s this year. DBC have already operated 66s between Barnsley and Meadowhall this year after bridge works were completed.

I've recently used the Peco Twistlock motors, which I found very easy to install using the enclosed template which just requires 3 pilot holes drilling from the top. Pre wired as well which made connection even simpler.

I believe they are prone to reporting fuel shortages when the fuel isn't actually short.

Not using the OHLE means they are using more fuel than expected and the tanks are not very big - double jepardy Mr Bond

Need to keep the AdBlue topped up as well!

As frustrating as it might seem, I was in the same boat in January after noticing full payment had actually been taken before Christmas, but after a quick phone call to Charlie the order turned up a couple days later. I believe it was a genuine oversight given the very large quantities of orders being dealt with.
