Bachmann Wickham Trolley
Hi All I was thinking of obtaining one of the above. However, my loco's are DCC, so I was wondering if anyone has successfully fitted a small decoder to one of these, and what the level of difficulty is. I am aware that there are few retailers who will fit these, for a price obviously, but am wonder...

Re: Prototype for everything dept. - Stephenson's Rocket 1829
REF> The Rocket.
When the old "Transport Museum" was at Clapham in London, before being moved to York, on a plinth outside was a large replica of Rocket.
I believe that this was taken up to York when the NRM first opened.

If so I wou...

Re: A Loose Wire
Robert & WTD I have touched the green wire to the tag on the trailing bogie and the loco refused to move. I have had a good look and I cannot see any other tags to which the green wire should be soldered to. One end of the green wire is indeed soldered to the brushes on one side with a smaller w...

Re: A Loose Wire
Robert
Thank you for that.
I will try it to see if it works.
I did wonder if that is where it should be, but was too worried to try it in case I burnt out the motor, or something.
Thank you
