Re: Identifying wagon kit - help please
Never seen a tenmille kit like this either. All I can say is the centre buffer/coupling is a brandbright one.

Re: SVLR new loco - ERYRI
Hi, In the manual for Little John, it says that there are 2 O rings supplied, which can be fitted behind transmitter wheel, holding it in set position as well. I don't think the transmitter can be switched off as in some other Roundhouse locos. Sold my Little John as I have been reducing my fleet, s...

Re: SVLR new loco - ERYRI
Hi,
One crude but quick way of setting speed before you modify the controller is to move the tyre on controller so that it is pushing against controller body. So wherever you set speed control wheel it stays put. Crude but effective.
Regards Alan.

Re: RH Bulldog and Roy Wood Salem
The Rounhouse Bulldog is well made and very controllable. But to me Essel are better quality or you could look at the Friog website.
Hope this helps Alan.

Hi Richard, As Chris said it is very easy to do wheel change, the wagons are designed to accommodate 32mm and 45mm wheel sets. I have seen quite a few on sale on line and at shows but prices tend to be high. You do sometimes strike it lucky, I once paid £20 for a pair that only needed a clean and re...

Essel Fowler charging.
Hi All,
Just decided to charge my Essel Fowler F30 after a long period not used. Unfortunately I stored it with another charger, so I am not sure what polarity and voltage the charger should be set at. Think the voltage should be 12v but not sure of polarity. Any help would be very welcome.

Hi Mr Bond, The loco is charged through a socket in the cab via a supplied charger. Can't give you any figures on battery life but I've never had the loco run out of battery. If I can find any pictures of the loco I will send them to you or post them on the forum. I have somewhere some video footage...
