      It gets worse, Alan. The Morely controller just isn't up to the fine control needed on a small layout. As a result, it was impossible to do any shunting because I couldn't run trains slowly enough to stop over the uncoupling magnets.  So the two railcars had to do the bulk of the work, with the two Swilly tanks just about managing their trains, but having to run much too quickly for my liking.  Spent the second half of the day trying to work out what combinations might work best for Sunday, while also had to bring home several wagons and coaches to repair the DG couplings.  I've done well over 100 shows and today was by some distance the most challenging and disappointing I've ever experienced. :-( 😶🤔:-( :-[

      Not sure but it sounds like something that the Lima of that time would do. Cheers Darius

      Nicely done. Am I right in thinking that the Lima Deltic had HO scale bogies, making them too short for the Deltic model but conveniently a better match for the B101? as a reminder, there are some drawings here:

      I built the Silver Fox resin bodied version a year or so ago, using a cut down Lima Class 55 chassis.   Cheers Darius

      In a moment of vanity I put Darius43 and RMWeb into the AI mode of a Google search. Apparently I am a “They” and am keen on building Modern Talbot Kits (MTK). Who knew. Cheers Darius
