Hi all - I opened my latest acquisition tonight for a trial run, couple of immediate faults were apparent as a tender buffer plus another bit of metal dropped out. Spot of superglue gel sorted the buffer and I eventually traced the metal piece to be the block that sits between the reversing rod and the cab, another spot of glue and that was back in place. Put all the brake gear into place but I have one component that I cannot place, anyone help?
Couple of views of the loco at Northbridge
The loco comes DCC ready, including a chip. Since I am a DC man the chip will be no use to me, is this chip worth anything?
