Hi from Mid Wales

[Alan Burch]

Hi

I am in the process of setting up garden railway (still got some digging, weeding and levelling to do). I have acquired a reasonable amount of LGB and am awaiting the delivery of some secondhand MTS equipment. I have just bought a DCC equipped loco so that I can test everything before I start to convert the analogue ones I already have. I expect to be posting a few queries on here as work progresses! I'd be happy to hear from any other members in Mid Wales or Shropshire.

Welcome aboard Alan. Are you getting MTS 2 or 3. The 2, whilst working well, is showing its age now with all the functions available on modern decoders.

Welcome Alan! Opposite side of the country from you (Essex), but will be over your way (well, Wales anyway...) in September for the Llanfair show and W&L steam gala!
I would agree with Stockers (the other Alan) about MTS3 being the better purchase, but you can still get by well enough with MTS2P (if all parts of the system are marked with the "P" sticker for Parallel operation).

Jon.

Welcome!
A little closer to you, in Tamworth.. There are a fair few in the area, so am sure someone else will be along in a minute.

Welcome aboard Alan.

Thank you for all the welcome messages. The control system has arrived, it's MTS2P. I've just got to wait for a dcc equipped loco to arrive from Germany to start testing, meanwhile carry on with the digging and weeding.
