  5. Just wondering. If any members trying their locomotives and rolling stock with hunt couplings on their layout or even change the couplings on their Murphy model locomotive or likes of Marks Models going to order some as have pay sterling Price of 15 pounds for a packet of 10
  6. Just wondering if member uses kingspan foam on top their baseboards as a foundation as they would pink or blue extruded foam boards on their baseboards in the USA or would you use cork
  7. I am doing a new layout on to a old baseboard but some of the old baseboards tops have spilts in the baseboard tops I was due to get a hobby shed for it I wouldn’t be able to get it for a while and due to covid 19 I will not able to get new replacements tops for a while it be a while before I can see my new layout design up and running
  8. Just wondering if anyone would have used Kingspan foam board as part of their building of their baseboards or part of the plan
  9. Hi wondering if hunt couplings would work with Irish coaches on your model layout as they are a uk company that makes them as they are new on the market and would you try them
  10. I have a layout using peco track but I want to replace it with fliechmann ho flex track with a new track plan when I get some track in the near future so I am wondering did any members have tried the fliechmann track
  11. I have a dcc layout but I have a few dc locos and rolling stock is there a way of running dc locos on the layout on it I have a hornby R8012 HM 2000 controller can just swap controller
  12. Every time I try a locomotive it stops at the same electro frog point  every time

      That sounds like the switch blades, as in the picture I just posted - try making sure the moving blade actually connects to the fixed one.

  13. The. Peco points are a good electro frog points & wired correctly

      Perhaps the wheels are wider or need to be re- gauged?

      Thanks for the tip

  14. Do anybody have trouble with peco points when trains go over them that cause a short every time even though you clean the track & clean the loco wheels & oil it
  15. I am just wondering what is the easiest way to ballast the track the old fashioned way using 50/50 glue water washing liquid or try ballast magic by deluxe material as I never ballast track before and which type of ballast is the best to use
