R3983SS is shown as "In Stock" on this site.

R30225SS is still listed as Autumn 2024 - so not everything arriving?

I'm not sure I would describe it as the "Hattons Brand"? What they have bought is the product database and expansive “Directory” system.. Rails will soon relaunch these services and will continue to update them with new information. A useful source of information.

Tamiya Clear Yellow - it works well, the more coats you apply the darker the lighting gets.

Yes it was - you have a good memory😃

There are two types of Maglight - one is specifically for Mk3 coaches.

I used 12v LED's from a five metre roll bought on ebay. I put a resistor in the circuit, no bridge rectifier, and used, in this case, wheel contacts from DCC Concepts. A dab of Tamiya clear yellow lacquer on the LED's gave the period lighting. The carriages shown have been operating for about five years with no problems. I

I used Woodland Scenics medium grey, with some dark grey and some brown and then well mixed.

This is just a "heads-up" to those who might be interested. I have just renewed my subscription for my Hornby Magazine. I only took out a years subscription (I am running out of room!!) and part of the deal was a free pair of tickets to Key Model World Live at the NEC at the end of April 2024. To me that is a good deal.

I think that being a member of the Collectors Club is worth the money for what is there now or might occur during the year. I know £30 might appear a bit steep, but just by way of comparison, I was in London on Saturday and bought a round of drinks in a pub - eight pints of mixed beers and lagers came to £51.00 - I only bought one round😁

Reward Points are still there. I have just looked at a possible pre-order, and it says I would earn 2500 Reward Points with this purchase.

I have been using that method since I first added loco's to the App. I have found that either portrait or landscape gives you a perfect image - no adjustment required. I use an iPhone 8.

I will not use them as I am happy taking a photograph using the App. However you have displayed a fantastic selection of locomotives - thank you.

One very minor point. Having read the instructions shown, I would add that both of my Dapol signals work perfectly well with 6v DC.

I only have two loco's added to the Legacy Dongle at the moment, one with sound and lights and one just movement. Set-up was very straightforward and both loco's working perfectly. A great piece of kit and I will add more loco's when I can. Due to new replacement double-glazing be installed in the next few weeks, a large area of my layout has had to be removed so I have very limited "running" space at the moment.

The Castle profile has been reloaded, so should now be ok. I have just downloaded it and it worked first time.

My Legacy Dongle arrived early this morning via DPD. I set it up straightaway, following the instructions to the letter, and it worked at first time of trying. I have a Bachmann Class 205 Thumper unit, which has a Southwest Digital Loksound decoder and speaker fitted (many years ago). I have also added a second loco which has a TCS DP2X-UK decoder (non-sound) and that also works perfectly. A great piece of kit for £39.99. My Elite (v.1.45) is an older version so has two ports on the back in which to plug the Dongle(s).

I received a similar email today from The Model Centre - "The latest release from Hornby" - does say it is TTS Sound fitted.

A really nice layout - I watched your tree-making YT video last night. Keep up the good work. BB

Mine too, is on it's way.
