    I just paint the sides of the rails using a small brush. I only paint the sides you can see. I like most people don't have any spraying equipment..................yet. It only takes a short time. Clean the tops of the rails to remove any paint. Be extra careful around points. /media/tinymce_upload/6c5523668c3888136d854ec43935e656.jpg

    To the right hand silver tag, second picture I reckon. Put the loco on the track, turn on the power and touch the tag with the wire. See if ot moves. Simples.
  3. walkingthedog
    So what is the question?
  4. walkingthedog
    Is this any good. https://www.collettsmodelshop.co.uk/product/hornby-r3693-class-b2-peckett-0-6-0st-no-4-sherwood-in-sherwood-colliery-lined-green/

    Out of stock on this site just means Hornby don't have any in the warehouse at present. Hattons discontinued means absolutely nothing. Keep looking, there are lots of retailers on line. It will be back I can almost guarantee.

    Roger we really need to know which versions they are.
  7. walkingthedog
    If the motor for the loco is in the tender the loco wheels will move freely. If the motor is in the loco the wheels won't move.

    You should recognise the horse ? Margate-Richmond is the reborn SotT. I know that Rob, he is also no longer on the forum. If I had mentioned Margate-R, Viking wouldn't have known who I was talking about, would he. 😉
  9. walkingthedog
    SoT is no longer on this forum. Good to know his work is still going strong after 5 years.

    To help you we need a little more information, Hornby have made lots of Flying Scotsman locos, an R number and a picture of the offending part would help. Your post will probably be moved to the General Section.
  11. walkingthedog
    Slight correction to the above, you can always run a DCC Ready loco on analogue.

    I used to mix up wads of that stuff in my hands Howard. It certainly did what it said on the tin, or box in your case. /media/tinymce_upload/dddad5ad5da7338c352f393e0fff51d7.jpg

    Good job both types of Victor didn't fall to bits due rust.
  14. walkingthedog
    We had also been married a year and I bought a brand new Renault 4. Well somebody had to. 😆
  15. walkingthedog
    I think this post would be better in the general section. It is not a Thomas related query but a loco repair query.
  16. walkingthedog
    I have 104 loco and the only fault I have had is the occasional loose buffer. The majority of these locos have arrived by post.
  17. walkingthedog
    As Gordon is based on an A1/A3/Flying Scotsman type loco it might be worth looking at or contacting Peters Spares.
  18. walkingthedog
    Wheels are in a certain position. If you mean the loco wheels, not the tender, are the connecting rods jamming?
  19. walkingthedog
    It could be a tender drive loco in which case the loco won't have a motor.
  20. walkingthedog
    Thank you Jimbo. Don't remember much graffiti in the 60's.
  21. walkingthedog
    This is my latest. It runs very smoothly, very quietly and doesn't stutter or stop anywhere. /media/tinymce_upload/6acaf7133b50f726df622a068558ee54.JPG
  22. walkingthedog
    Ha ha. Rob sometimes you have me in stitches. Anyway let's keep this thread on subject.
  23. walkingthedog
    I will Jimbo. Just ordered it.
  24. walkingthedog
    So you have to use your own I take it.
  25. walkingthedog
    Bit sexist that Rob assuming SWMBO would own the sewing machine. 😆
