So for some time I've been trying to come up with a simple way of indicating what direction a point is set too without too much trouble, fortunately I cam across  this post  on rmweb regarding using bi-color leds with electrofrog points. Now the idea stayed floating in my head for some time, given that I had tried it with individual leds first but it wasn't quite something I was happy with. Though as mentioned as I came across the post I decided to give it a go so I got all the items I needed from maplins. Those being a breadboard, leds (bi-color type) resistors, tripad board, the diodes I already had from another project.

For some time I have been hunting for a decently priced display cabinet for my locomotives to be displayed in. Some luck came when I came across one for £29.99 in Lidls, and that is the one shown above, and for the price, it is quite sturdy and well constructed and as such is good for displaying my fleet of locomotives which are as following (from top to bottom and left to right) Hornby Taunton Castle from Date with The Duchy Set Bachmann Class 20 BR Green Sound Heljan Class 33 EWS Hornby Class 142 Pacer Great Western Hornby 1400 (number 4819) GWR Bachmann Tornado Bachmann Class 170 in SWT Bachmann Class 24 br Green Sound and finally Hornby Class 56 in EWS. They all get used and unless they are a multiple unit (IE Class 142 and 170) usually end up being run with a specific set of coaches or wagons, though it is not uncommon to have one set of wagons or coaches for 2 or 3 locomotives, that is untill I procure some rolling stock for the specific locomotive.
