Modeling topic

Trackwork now mostly complete on my 009 layout

Today I recorded a new episode of News from my modelrailway room. These time entirely focused on my 009 Isle of Skye Railway.

Russian Narrow Gauge locomotives.

In this blog I want to talk about Russian narrow gauge locomotives and how I am modelling them in TTe (1:120 on 6.5mm track). TT is still popular in Europe, and there is a slow increase in North American rolling stock in TT also. But Russia is where it is all happening!

Two references for these locos are listed below. They are both in Russian, but Google Translate is your friend.

Atlas DCC Shorting Problem

Good morning.

Recently I purchased a very nice Atlas HH600 on Ebay. It is factory-equipped with a decoder and sound. As soon as I turn on the layout, the loco shorts out until I tip it on its side. Then the short stops. Is this a problem with the sound, the lighting or should I just change out the decoder. Sound is not important at all to me.
