I did wonder about weather I should try sealing the loco inside a container, but didn't expect the rice to work in any case. Was more of an act of desperation, to avoid another rebuild.. Those re-usable sachets, does one leave them in the sun to dry?

Aaron
Hi Aaron, of you have searing sun and low humidoty, that would work, but in damp old Blighty I have to resort to 1/2 an hour in the oven!

Graeme, that's a neat arrangement with the single link, mine are similarly attached but without the neat cover, and they do occasionally jump off the retaining bollard. As you rightly observe, I have some quite sharp 'corners' (if they were bigger, I'd call them curves :lol: ) which undoubtedly doesn't help. Some food for thought there though, so thank you.
