    Never mind the rest - permission from the Art Dept is the main thing!! Is it intended as a fiddle yard or a scenic shunting yard?

    And thanks for the mention! Very generous. 

    You are welcome and I should give @Peachy  some airtime too lol. 😛 Scenic Shunting Yard, I built I will show it off principle 😛 but to add extra playability. The point at the top connects to the elevated freight loop.

  2. So the Art Department suggested extending the layout to make use of the spare wood, it’s a small extension on 37cm, was thinking of bigger shunting area (thanks to @GMD shutting puzzle) only problem is that I need to enter it from the right due to the flyover section. It does mean I can isolate it and make use of my DC 08. My question is does this look odd? Managee to get two entry/exit points maybe one for freight and one for passenger stock, with inter connections to give my 08 plenty of run around space. The prices out of the blue area are on the layout already

  3. Only just ordered mine (BR Blye-Grey) as was undecided but double points swung it and the fact I needed some extra platform straights. Hopefully they will get dispatched Tuesday 

  4. East Mallingford now has a pub and corner shop. A couple more terraces and the street will be complete I think. A Royal Mail Depot to add in which is a project for over the weekend. Test placements conducted looking good in my opinion.

  5. Yeah I had to do that with the my Scotsman once, not sure what caused it, it is HM7000 equivalent of switching it off and back on again lol

    @Silver Fox 17 yes, I was lazy typing 🤣

    @Martin-369195 at worst you can buy the DC version and pop a decoder in, it won’t be hard at all, none of the TT models have been so far 😁

    That’s my job pro-ordered non DCC version before the DCC was added to the website but still works out cheaper.

    I emailed them a couple of weeks ago about the HST (and others) hobby points. There was a glitch in the system at that time. The points were added a couple of days later.

    Emailed after 21 days for each of mine and it was a glitch each time to me it’s not a glitch if it fails each time for three orders

    I’d email Hornby about your points. I’ve now had to do it for the HST & the Mk3s. Something seems wrong with the points being applied, maybe it’s a pre-order thing. 

    Yep had the same issue with TTA Tankers, HST Train Pack and MK3s
