Here are the 6 lower Quadrant Dolly Posts with product codes.
The numbers 44 -49 are product codes |
Here is a photo of the brass 48 Class Handrails and Multi-unit Connectors for the Trainorama 48 Class. These plug into the same hole mounts and can be glued so they won't come out.
These were made as I found that I had lost several handrails on my Trainorama 48 Class locomotives. These can be glued in place, unlike the push-fit original parts that can easily be caught and spring away during handling.
As some modellers will know already, Duncan McRae. the owner of Tam Valley Depot has terminal cancer and has retired. His family are going to attempt to keep the business going but possibly due to the supply difficulties of electronic parts they have reduced the product line. Unfortunately, the Singlet II, Octopus III and the Quad-Pic servo control boards have been dropped from the line. Hopefully, this will be resolved and the boards will be available again.
The Frog Juicers and DCC Booster are still available.
There is no mention of the Dual Three Way Servo board being dropped but it isn't listed as a product anymore.
A three-way servo control board is required for the Upper Quadrant signals.
There are other servo control boards available and here are several possibilities.
I am sure there would be others so if anyone knows of any please let me know at rpilgrim@bigpond.net.au.
