:O dear! he seamed like a nice guy, Saw him at exeter show. Not good news. Is there going to be a sale until closure?

They take a while to bed in, I think its normal... My Mamod didn't like it when i put a new upgraded cylinder in with an older bedded in one!

Sent Dream Steam an e-mail a couple of weeks back, asking if they sell the re-fill gas adaptors seperately. 3 days later.... Link to a new page.... Another good example!

Dangerous to put a list of things to do over the winter! But;

1) Finish building the Line
2) Change loading guage to corrrect guage
3) Put track Circuit Bonding & Insulators in
4) Build some signals
5) Build Control Panel
6) Install Signalling.

Not much to do!

I tend to run me mamod at 45-50 psi... but that will change when the o-rings on one side are nicly bedded in!

Shouldn't do! They do the kit containing those bits in a pack, so should work well together

When running up and down. A 1 yd section of straight, blowing off at 50, quiet happily, but I lost the achual piston and was left with just a piston rod and the end cap!

Exact same problem I had, except mine were 2 months old not a year!

I had the same problem, Paul said he'd never had the problem before, but as 3 of us on the forum alone have had the problem.... must be a bad batch!

Looks nice, Didn;t see any at Exeter show on Ivan's stand, unless i just wasnt looking?

Im not sure if we do yet, as its being done in a rush for next operating system, If i PM you my E-mail would you be able to send me a copy?

Ahh dear! You could have come and advised us, aspecially as im about 20-30 mins from torcross!

Ideal! Fancy coming down to darkest devon for a week? Hehe:)

Love the Vac system, is that a combined Steam/Vac System? Were installing Vac brakes at the moment are at a loss what to use on them to make the Vacuum! (7 1/4")

Depends, The ruston I've got is Battery... Lots of room for R/C I think they all are... originally using C cells if memory serves me right.

Wow, thats dusty!
