  1. I was driven nuts by this here is the solution I assume you have deleted the consist (well it does not work always) The Prodigy stores the last 20 locos you have programmed in it's memory stack; if you disconnect or remove the power to the Prodigy and still remembers them. If one of any of the locos have been in a consist they may not work on their own any more and you will have trouble setting up another consist. To overcome this issue delete all the loco numbers in the memory stack one by one and then things will return normal! As I said earlier in this thread this was the final straw for me and I now have a PowerCab/ProCab system that I really like! Good Luck, Xerces Fobe
  2. I got so fed up with my Prodigy with all the problems I had with it I that I purchased an NCE PowerCab in my opinion a much better piece of kit. I still use the Prodigy for programming and testing only. Xerces Fobe
  3. Exclusive - Crane driver training at Newport Docks! http://www.break.com...m-crane-1925194 Xerces Fobe
  4. I have 2 insulfog code 75 double slips on my layout and don't have any real problems with them with DCC Photo courtesy of Daniel Floyd Xerces Fobe
  5. I have 5 of these sitting in my cupboard and even converted one to centre headcode. Agree with all the above comments, however in there day they were sort after and at one point would command a price of@ £80 each! Xerces Fobe
  6. I have good friends with the Falmouth MRC guys some of which are on RMweb. Sorry I do not have details of the headcodes myself but do recall seeing Class 22's on the services. You also appear to have omitted the Truro (Newham branch) freights! Xerces Fobe
  7. Hi Mike =Next time I am visiting Boston I will let you know maybe around this time next year Regards, Nigel

  8. It appears that this is full size railways copying railway modellers and kit bashing a loco together I bet the DCC Chip will be impressive! Good luck to this group; it will be great to see the finished product. The Baby Deltic was always a favorite loco of mine, unfortunately I only managed to see D5905/9 at Stratford after they were withdrawn. Xerces Fobe
  9. A few more photos uploaded this morning I have some more however they are duplicate shots that I was not happy with. Nigel.
  10. I am glad that my photos enthused you - they were taken yesterday before the heavy downpours in Cornwall today. I have some more photos only slight variations on what has already been posted happy to share them if they would be useful to you. The things that surprised me about the Wenford Bridge dries was how long they were and how access from the line was somewhere in the middle as the was evident by the concrete buffer at the Bodmin end of the dries Good luck with the project - we all have go through phases were we are wonder if a project is worth carrying on, but we usually do continue on!

  11. Class 103's 4 2 car units were transferred from the LMR to the London Division of the WR circa 1971 all were overhauled before entering service with the WR if I recall correctly. These units only last 2/3 years at the most in London Division of the WR and worked the Windsor, Borne End/Marlow and Henley branches - possibly the Greenford branch as well however I never seen any evidence of this Unlike the Class 121's that operated on the Thames Valley branches the Class 103's were not used on the main line regularly (if at all). Following the there stint in the London Division the were transferred to the West Country and certainly worked around the Torbay area. P200 was an oddball unit formed of 2 Class 103 MBS's and was a power twin. I also remember seeing a Class 103 DTC painted in yellow and used as a viaduct inspection vehicle stabels at Lomg Rock Depot circa 1974/5. Of interest the Class 103 at the Helston Railway http://www.helstonrailway.co.uk/ is one of these units and is the unit that worked the last Belmont (Circle) - Harrow & Wealdstone train in 1963 when it was allocated to Watford. I was very young then but can recall seeing a Class 103 at Harrow on a number of occasions as well as seeing one on the down relief at Carpenders Park as I waited to board a Class 501 (sorry I just had to get that in ) Class 103 at Trevarno Gardens station June 2010 Xerces Fobe
  12. I would guess the filter on your company’s profanity filter has picked up on "DD" Xerces Fobe
  13. How about an 8VAB, however you will need 3 Hornby VEP MBS's and a suitable Buffet car - anyone up for it? Xerces Fobe
