Got a Shackleton in my model aircraft collection - 1:48 scale MR3 built from the Sanger vac form kit. Perhaps a diorama with a runway level crossing is in order - would need to be in O gauge though… Cheers Darius

I have some similar posters from a web shop. Fortunately it was not this one… Belfast has certainly changed since I was last there a couple of years ago… Cheers Darius

I have this poster framed at home as a reminder of a wonderful trip I did with my Mum and Dad from Portrush to Derry and back about 20 years ago. I was looking at it this morning and noticed that there are three guys in the cab and two of them are leaning out of the side window on both sides. One is looking forwards and the other to the rear. Does anyone know why they are doing this - was it a regular occurrence? Cheers Darius

I bought a DCC sound Jaffa Cake 4-CEP from Derails a few weeks ago at a good discount because the box end had a slight tear. If you are not a collector of pristine tissue wrapped boxes and actually want to run the models on a layout these are very good value for money. You also get free biscuits. Cheers Darius

Märklin Trix DCC controller with Hornby track
Darius43 replied to Gortalainn's question in DCC, Electrics and Electronics
Back in the 1980s I had a Märklin HO model railway. This was before DCC but the Marklin power system was 16V AC with a stud supply “third rail” along the track centreline as opposed to 2 rail DC, i.e. Hornby. Nowadays Marklin and Trix are the same company (Marklin) with Marklin models being 3-rail AC and Trix 2-rail DC. I don’t know if the “MFX” DCC system that Marklin uses works for both the 3-rail and 2-rail systems but it may be that you need a Marklin system for 3-rail and a different Trix system for 2-rail. It may be worth contacting someone like Gaugemaster to find out. Cheers Darius
