About half an hour ago it made its first faltering steps under DCC
control. Faltering because there's a bit of paint on the wheels and the
steel track is prototypically rusty. I've posted the last photos, sorry
one is a bit short of depth of field. It is painted a bit darker than it
looks in the pics, I've lightened in photoshop to show the detail. I
still daren't run it with the motor cover in place. I'm going to have to
fit some reliable insulation over the motor terminals first. There isn't
much space.
I'll sort that out, give it a touch of plastic safe oil or thin grease
in the gears and then get it weathered and programmed.
