SEASON GREETINGS GUYS......I have a bachman class 37 and in with some other items i bought with it cama a hornby tts class 37 sound chip,tried everything possible to put on my dynamis to no avail,are hornby chipsno compatable

If i can sort out how to post videos ill make a short one of it all,the layout is a square shape 17 feet x 16 feet

There is very little dust up there but id something needs a clean i use a rechargeable hand held vacuum cleaner with a small nozzle,the track i use an old hornby track cleaner and a dapol motorised cleaner,

Hi Artur,the ballast is actually bird grit,cost £1.50 for 2kg from market pet stall.I seived it with a fine strainer and used the fine stuff for the four foot and the courses for the six foot.Cost me £35 to ballast the whole board,it is not glued either,as its quite heavy it does,nt move,all id did ...

I never glue ballast but then again i dont use it,I use bird grit seived into 2 pile,coarse and fine,the fine fo the four foot and coarse for everwhere else,take a look at my layout pics,the grit is multi coloured and resembles proper ballast

after having to start all over again..this time in a much bigger loft a few pics showing present state
