Certain manufacturers liked to include both options with the product, ie- they were interchangeable. Regardless it would be quite easy to make...
I just looked at mine and I don't think so. The trucks have a lot of details that stick out plus there are step ladders on either side front &...
With the exception of some Atlas 85' trash (the load, not the quality) flatcars, I don't have any cars with body mounted couplers. I did at one...
The only WD40 I have on hand is a wet PTFE (which doesn't seem to be produced anymore, only dry version on website). I had it in my head that this...
Just read through this entire thread (not sure if that a plus or a minus :D) and now will add my 2c. A member at my club swears by Wahl oil, but...
Social restrictions here have eased to the point where the club can reopen :) First proper run in months! [IMG] Regarding lighting, recently a...
They are points in Australia, or switches.
Just to throw a bit more confusion into the mix...we call them "points" in Australia. The person who changes them is still called a switcher, or...
Judging by the LEDs and 820Ω resistors I'm guessing yellow, white, and the 2 unknown ones are for testing decoder functions (ie- headlights). Blue...
Not DCC ready according to Spookshow, and rear Crapido is integrated into the truck so not easy to change. He also says these are a direct swap...
Yes, you are right. When you mentioned unifrogs I remembered I didn't make the standard modifications to the electrofrogs I am using because they...
Sad news for me too. As of last night my Arduino servo + relay turnout system (that I thought was mostly finished...) is back on the work bench...
Good ideas Ravindra, I actually subscribed to your channel after randomly finding that video a week or so back. Re: the Tortoise tension style vs...
These toys remind me of something I saw years ago, from a modeler who was known for kitbashing super-deformed 'shorty' trains. One such picture...
Hmm from the same seller, this one isn't listed as N though...
I had something like this that involved my servos going wacko, and it ended up being the switching power supply for my very old laptop. It wasn't...
I would suggest this, and can check the resistance too. I've had dodgy turnouts where it's like there's a resistor on the feeder, which obviously...
Thanks all (y)
Ooh I've got a handful of those, usually used in a MotW train but that gives me a good modeling idea. My latest purchase was electronics, a bunch...
If I ever lose such a clip or it fails *cough* Kato E & F units *cough* I've always had success pulling some kapton tape nice and tight from one...
