Another loco for your gallery 🎉

Picture and frame on the way!!!

[@tonyrobinson362]

Why didnt you program actual loco number? I take the second No5 plus the next 3 but thats on 55s you've got the old 4 digit number.

[@LyneworthModelmRailway-c3d]

Just started numbering the locos at 1 when I got started and stuck with it ever since! No other reason. I do keep thinking that loco number would prbably make it easier to remember! To Be Honest never thought I'd get to (or be qallowed to get to!!) 43 Locos!!!

How did you switch off the white marker lights in the direction of travel

[@LyneworthModelmRailway-c3d]

Hi, The white markers come on automatically when you turn the lights on (Key 0) and they automatically reverse when you change direction. You do have to switch the red tails on and off separately as they would only be on when running light engine (sorry I'm at work and can't remember the key number for those!). Turning the white front lights off can only be done by turning the lights off altogether ie Key 0. Hope that helps?

There is a fault with the lighting, it seems like all lights fitted to every new Deltic is designed for D9016 WIPAC lighting. Which explains the problem, I’ve also got a message from Accurascale saying they knew there was a fault

[@vcs00railway]

​@daddyflumpengland499 yes, same issue, they say there is no cv fix, requires a physical solution, remove them or paint over 😊

[@LyneworthModelmRailway-c3d]

@@vcs00railway ThinkI'll simply leave alone!

[@vcs00railway]

@LyneworthModelmRailway-c3d , I was hoping a simple wire unplug on the pcb would turn off the white markers, but the wires run under the cab makes that difficult. The black paint or black tac may be a simple solution when removing the body to fit crew
