Model Railway Forum

Thanks Brian,

It's an interesting site with lots of photos but I do not see any technical stuff.

If I find anything of use, I'll post the details on this site.

Regards,

Tom

Thanks for your reply. I've checked eBay but nothing. I found recently that the copper wheel that picks up from the track on the earlier cars came in 2 different sizes and I'm not sure which cars take which size as both seem to fit (and like most Minic, neither really work that well...)

Does anyone know of a source for any service sheets for the cars? Thanks for any help.

The Magnetiser works really well. Well made, quality piece of equipment. Very pleased with it.

Agreed!

I've ordered a remagnetiser. Will report results soon. Thanks.

Thanks for your reply.

I had thought about a remagnetiser but they are over £100 and that's quite a few neo magnets!

The source I used for the X04 ones no longer seems to trade and the only ones I can find on line for locomotives are the X04. I had previously also been able to get ones for Wrenn ...

I was able to source these for the Triang X04 but are they available for the Triang R157/R555 (DMU/Blue Pullman using the X3121 power bogie; they're be the same as the ones in the R357 and R751 (class 31 and 37)? Thanks for any help.

Thanks for your very complete reply. I saw some receivers on eBay for £10 but not sold but I'll keep an eye out.

I recently bought a locomotive with a receiver in it for the above (or what I googled is part of the above). Has anyone any experience/knowledge of that system which I understand was on the market in 1979 or thereby?
