Upminster is on the District Line, no tube trains go there but otherwise fine. Maybe should've made it Hainault!, that has a main booking hall platform and one island platform then immediately passes over a road bridge on the way to the depot and Woodford.

Yes, that's right, I used to go Hainault quite often a long time ago. Hence why I just couldn't resist the 1959 central line stock. Thanks for watching and commenting. Best regards, Lee

Good to see you make another appearance trust you and yours are well. (No pressure I’m patient 😊). As to the DCC chip it does seem possible that it has overheated. Before replacing it there’s a little trick that I learned long ago from computer hardware studies- place it in a plastic bag (zip lock or air tight) and give it a few hours in the freezer. Then let it slowly come back to room temperature and dry. Apparently this allows the electronics “recrystallise” and revive. Thanks for the update I like to see how the layout and the rolling stock are progressing. Nice work on the 1959 set. I’m just a tad older than that and my bearings are wearing out and I derail fairly often and motors aren’t as reliable as once they were 😂 Looking forward to your next progress report whenever that happens to be.

Ian, that message gave me the giggles because I can totally relate to what you are saying. My bearing are cracking a bit too. I tell you what though nate, I'm going to try that trick with the freezer, and I reckon you could be right, in the fact that it could work. If it wasn't so late, I'd jump up in the loft now and try it. But, definitely going to try that and see if it works. Thanks for that, and also thanks all your support as always. Best regards, Lee

Hi Lee, love both the 1938 and 1959 stock. You maybe right with the short between chasis and bogie. To me sounds like an overload on the chip, possibly using the two motors. Maybe trying using the one motor may help. It could be possible that between the two motors and weight maybe overloading the chip, just a thought. I do like the lighter platforms too. All the best and good luck. Susannah

Hi Susannah, yeah, I think you're right here because I was thinking the same thing. It's a bit weird the way the 1938 stock comes with 2 motors and requires 2 separate decoders (separate coaches too). It has to be the problem of overload. I'm glad you like the underground stock, they mean a lot to me, and also, the lighter grey on the platforms, I just think it looks more likely to be that colour. Thanks as always for your support Susannah, you've always helped me out and been right. Take care, enjoy the sun and speak soon. Lee

Glad you like the tube stock, its a bit different I suppose. I've been testing for the problem and it's the decoder. Everytime I plug the decoder in, it shorts the layout, so I've order another one. Gone for a hornby one this time and I think the trick is not to go nutty with it so it doesn't draw too much and burn out. Anyway, we'll soon find out. Thanks as always mate and enjoy being in the garden. All the best, Lee

Hi Mate trust you are well and loving the tube stock . Do you know what the train is drawing in power as it might be the reason it’s playing up because the decoder cannot cope . I know Heljan locos draw a fair amount . If that is the case then a decoder that can cope with the power draw might help . Or I could just be totally wrong 😂😂 And I agree the new grey platforms look better. Cheers Kev

Love the ‘59 stock, your brave to make that conversion - you sound like your on track to sorting it but I doubt it’s shorting as it happens after a long time.

Hello Hatty, how are you my friend. Good to hear from you as always. When I mentioned the window sills, I had you in mind and it was aimed at you, as I know you know your Upminster. Yes the dark grey wasn't too bad, but I'm glad you agree with the lighter grey platforms as I do think they look a bit better. With the 59 stock, I'm thinking of putting it on a completely different chasis, as long as it remains in scale because I'm having too many problems with these tenshodo motors and also the other bogies. Im going to look into it. Thanks as always Harry for your support. Best regards Lee

Ive seen a video from Underground Eric about those tenshodo motors and I think they have a tendency to overheat after a while of running. So maybe see if leaving it overnight to cool back down helps? Maybe also move the decoder as far away from the motors as you can to stop that overheating too. Just my thoughts. Interested to know the solution though as I too have that exact same model although mine is as yet unconverted so just a static model. All the best Mark

Hello Mark. Firstly thank you for watching and commenting. Yeah, it seems that if it's left over overnight to cool down, it will run again. I known the tenshodo motos do get hot, vut I'm thinking it maybe running them on the same decoder? I might see if I can run each motor off a seperate decoder? I'm not great with electronics so it might be pointless. If not, I'm actually thinking of seeing if I can attach the bodies to different chasis, but I'd have be careful of it looking right. Thanks again Mark. Lee
