Hi Everyone, Quite simply I have a Loksound V5 installed in my Dapol Bubble Car, it sounds amazing and everything works a treat, except that in the reverse direction the tail lights do not light up. In the forward direction everything is fine. I have trawled the maunal online however my limited know...

Thank you all for the excellent advice and tips...I really appreciate it.

Kind regards,

Gav.

Thanks Both I really appreciate the input.

I am working things through in my head at the moment and your advice has certainly helped thank you.

Many thanks again,

Gavin.

Hi Everyone, I have a space in the loft room, recently vacated, which I am claiming for my own! The overall room size is a little over 12' x 10' with no obstructions such as doors etc. After scouring the web for a day or 4, I am struggling to find the inspiration for a track plan in 'O' gauge so fel...

Thank you Everyone, I am overwhelmed by the kind comments thank you....you're very kind. :oops: :oops: Running the layout is really important to me so leaving some details aside to have a reliable running layout was really what I was after and have achieved this thankfully. The layout is completely ...

Well a big Hi to everyone and an apology for not posting sooner or in more detail as the layout moved along.....there was no lack of mojo for the modelling, only work and life getting in the way, stupid illnesses and a new Grand-daughter to fit into the mix which was obviously the best bit of all! I...

Thanks mate and yes in retrospect I think you are right, I think I was trying to be too clever as there is a path on the other side of the stone wall which I wanted to light......but yes methinks they'll need to be turned round to make more sense so thanks for the comment...this is what I have alway...

Hi again, So following on from the previous post...this is just to give you an idea about the steps and the different levels from the house backs to the roadway.....it's far from perfect but will certainly "make do" from my operating position which is a good 5 feet to the right of the loca...

Thanks for that John you're a pal I would have never seen that....and your solution is spot on as I can't put a supporting pillar underneath as there is no room between the tracks...thanks again....I appreciate it and will get to that v. soon. At the moment I am just making some stone steps cut out ...

Hi again, Just a little update, the oil fuel tanks are going in and although there is a whole lot of detailing to do (Hoses etc) I am happy with the location of them and the nice little diorama I have built around them. As ever although this isn't the greatest modelling in the world, I tend to use a...

Thanks guys for the kind comments...it's much appreciated...more to come soon...well soonish anyway!

Hi Everyone, Well it's been a long time since an update but that's Christmas and New Year for you, there's always something getting in the way. So the past couple of months have been spent making yet more houses for the main street.....yet more terraced house fronts and shops to complete the long ro...

Hi and just to say what a great job you have done, I have really enjoyed catching up with this thread and the track plan is a delight, lots of operational interest in there.

Thanks for sharing.

Gavin.

This was just a wonderful read thanks for posting. It is a really lovely flowing layout, you've done a great job. Well done.

Gavin.
