DCC Flicker free lighting for IRM Ballast Plough
enniscorthyman replied to DB JOE's question in Questions & Answers
I fitted a capacitor to one plough van and it works perfect.When you take off the body look towards rear and the roof mounted board does have a + and - .Space is tight and you just carefully solder the + to + and - to -.I painted the capacitor yellow to hide it as best I can. Also you will need to add a bit of wire from the capacitor to the board keeping them red and black. Note doing this will invalidate your warranty on the Van's.The rear lights stay on for about 4-5 seconds even when taken off the track. Hope this helps. -
I reloaded the videos and the same problem.I might try and load them to you tube and see if that helps.

Hi Midland Man,the horse van was built by a friend who gave it to me. As far as I know it's a alphagraphix kit on a Parkside Dundas chassis.

Just finished a SSM 30 ton brake van.I gave her a test run behind 190 and all is well.Some minor work to do as the roof is sticking up in one place. 20200419_162628.mp4

On mentioning that the 121s stand taller than the 141s,I remember somewhere being mentioned that the 071 class stand slightly taller than the 141/181 class as well.

Stephen,I used Studio Scale Models decals.George had renumbered 080 to 075 for me,but I thought I would have a go at a new number.

Some repair work on 084,which I renumbered from 075.A broken lamp iron was replaced,and some of the handrails supports were glued back into place.I think she is looking well now. The weathering was done by George Norman.

That looks like the blanking plate that covers the 21 pins when the loco is running dc.

Yer dead right ,plastic railcars Sure one derailed at Portlaoise depot and had to be sent to Scotland for repairs.Its no wonder they did not all blow away in the recent storms.

The October 1988 journal has a brief account on the MK3 push pulls,if that's any use.

Dr,I have been told by a person in the know that 082 has a different Turbo charger than the rest of the 071 fleet,hence why she sounds so good. I am subject to correction on that answer.
