Wiring is still my biggest headache. However I have been maintaining locomotives, mainly to do with sound and split muffs on drive train. I have Austrains X Class, T Class as well as Trainorama S an 44 Classes that need upgrades. Have plenty of wheel sets but finding the T Class offset muffs to be a problem.
I ordered 3 new B Class with sound fitted, a heap of Tam Valley as well as some new Digitrax controllers.
Parts for my Wodonga and Albury control panels have arrived. Should get into that soon.
Wanted to buy the new Powerline Z Cars but as usual, they messed them up. They just cant help themselves "they are good enough the sheep will buy them anyway"
Peter shows the prototype A car and below is the model. All seats can face the direction of travel
This economy car (picture by Powerline) shows the seating is probably for First Class cars and stands much too high. First Class cars have at least 14 windows as shown by Peter's picture.
EDIT Note the seats on the BZ were recliners and could face direction of travel, not fixed as I thought
You can see what I am griping about? We waited over 25 years for these! We should be able to plonk them and run them. Much better than the original S Cars, however they are relatively 3 times dearer, today's dollar.
And I really am sick of paying premium prices and getting lima quality toys :( I wanted 6 of them) and will end up giving them a miss, I think unless Auscision decides to build them as part of their SOP sets.
Anyway hope to show you more next time ;D
