  8. @murphaph Their made up by myself Eoin
  9. If this unit has been put together in usual SF manner, the body is glued to the chassis. Usually done with impact or UHU adhesives, so out with the scalpel and cocktail ticks to open it up- insert the scalpel in the join of body and chassis and carefully slide it along to try and cut the glue, as you proceed insert the sticks behind the blade as you move along. You may find molded parts in the join on the body side which will hinder the blade- their push-pull unit had four of these, 2 on each side, force will break these so go carefully....... You can see the broken moldings on the chassis edge here on the DVR I installed a NS angle at each end of the body with a captive nut soldered in, to screw the chassis back on, allowing for easy opening up in the future.

  10. ???? This is how I would push/adjust that photo. The photo is low resolution, better results can be achieved with higher resolution files. Eoin
  11. Same here, my impression from this image was pale, pale blue!!
  12. This will give you some idea on inclines and the space required, I have built a few inclines and found 1:30 is about the min 'straight' incline that works- just! all depends on what you are going to run on it...... Having a deep lower track- for scenery, is not possible in limited space. That is why helixes are used but need to be based on large radii, these limit the size of trains, and limits the loco running gear life. Down the rabbit hole....... Eoin
  13. Yes, it can, but requires old style cutting wires, soldering, lighting units replacement for DCC and instillation of live coupler connection to power the rear coach lights.... Electric coupler setup Directional lights and coach lights Completed job. Unfortunately I took very few photos when doing it..... Eoin
