  16. Tested the two MPDs on the Middlemark layout today. They can just about propel themselves but pulling wagons is a no no, with wheel spin on R3 curves. Some more weight around the motor bogie is needed. Watch this space… Cheers Darius

  18. MPDs DCC fitted, tested and boxed ready for “running in” on the Middlemark layout this coming weekend. Also boxed something for them to pull along… Cheers Darius
