bgman Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Graeme, I think (he will correct me if I'm wrong) that the Duck has the ADS (solenoid) decoder not the AD (slow action) one - as we discussed on the MCL topic a couple of months ago. Ah! Sorry I may have mis-read it, thank you for pointing that out. Kind regards Grahame Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bgman Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Very off topic, but is that the case for a bomb sight computer? It's very like one I have. Unfortunately the bomb sight itself was dismantled for parts many years ago. Dave Whoa!! Duck down !!! BANG off topic G Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ar$e Let's try to predict what tomorrow might bring... - Barclay's say they got the decimal point in the wrong place and Hornby are actually making money hand over fist. - the first batch of Kernow's D6xx arrives by air from China. - Peco abandon plans for 00 bullhead track due general apathy on RMWeb. - the ACE runs all the way round SOSJ. On second thoughts forget that last one - a good April Fool has to be almost plausible. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, it was really a rhetorical question, as I'm sure it would probably make no difference, notwithstanding MIke's answer. Probably would have been better asked tomorrow morning...

Something I saw years ago was to lay two FB rails side by side with the feet butted against each other. It left a slightly wide flangeway but otherwise looked very effective.

RMweb Premium Mallard60022 Posted April 1, 2016 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted April 1, 2016 Bird flu my ar$e (and that is uncomfortable). I seem to be OKish today so it couldn't even be man flu. (Tempting fate here I know). Wasn't even an April Fool prank. Perhaps snorting some Evostick fumes cured it? So, many thanks for the best wishes and that has encouraged me to engage the brain cell and do some loft work. Nothing exciting I'm sorry to announce, just some adjustment to the Incline cross-over corky the cat underlay situation and an adjustment to the Station, west end, platform loop point positions (to avoid board supports). However, some sub micro-switches are about to be disciplined and I am actually clearing the area for the first BUS runs in the Incline and Fiddle areas. All in all the place is a right mess....... Love that Plumber's nightmare Tanky CK. You missed Graham of Grantham by about a month it would seem. Glad you had a good time; Wolsztyn next my friend. Yo.
