New Railway Modellers Forums

Gaugemaster allday.Would really like the Q model but at close on £200 thats a big save up time for me having just been made redundant.Have the D model and find it faultless.

Sorry to see this outlet go.used it very often for Peco flexi track since Hattons started using DPD I think it is,nothing but returns thru to damage.TrackShack used proper sturdy tubes for your long lengths of track.
Another victim to Covid sadly.

Sorry Flashbang.That is what I was referring to.If I supply power to the two outer stock rails the centre rail is powered also,not creating a short anywhere?Would I need insulating joiners anywhere?
I read somewhere it was not possible to wire this point in this manner?

Hi all.Question for all you Guy's that are better with electrics than me.I have a Peco 3-way Insulfrog point.If I was to wire across the 2 curves of the point,would this create a short circuit anywhere?
Thanks in advance.
Dave.

Hello all.Is anyone having trouble accessing their Hattons account or is it isolated to myself?

Morning all,I haven't read all of this topic as there are quite a few pages.Late last year,I purchased from a large retailer on Merseyside,you all know who I mean,a Bachmann 31-127 Class 30xx ROD for the then bargain price of £59.00.This item duly went out of stock.This morning whilst browsing the w...

Hello,I also have a large number of Dapol wagons to all of which I have added extra weight.Being in the Motor Trade I have access to alloy wheel balance weights which I personally find ideal.For instance,a box van would get an extra 10 grams added to it,5 grams either end,larger wagons 25-30 grams d...

Hi GWR_Fan,Bought the pristine 30xx for my daughter from Hattons @ £69.00 and is now at TMC being personalised for her.Now that there is another ten pounds off I'm having another while stocks last.Also the Hornby Railroad Tornado is another good buy,got two of these up to now and getting another two...

Thanks all for the replies.Just got in from work and read them.After reading the feedback,ordered one straight away.

Cheers all.

Hello all.Has anyone had any experience wether good or bad on this model?My daughter is wanting one to be personalised for her and Hattons are knocking them out at £69 at present.It's going to cost nearly as much to personalise so thought I'd ask the question.
Thanks.

Thanks for this George.It helped immensely.A similar product to T-Cut was used and was ideal.
