LGB Saxony VIK, 0-10-0

[Zerogee]

and, for the record, I had no problem chnaging the address number and I switched off Mfx in CV50.
I used my Massoth computer programmer and accessed one CV at a time because there is not a CV list for Mfx. on it.

Yes, that's pretty much what I did (though just via my Navigator, as I don't use the computer programming module)..... disabled the Mfx protocol so that the decoder doesn't spend its time searching for an Mfx control signal, but simply finds the DCC signal that it is now set up to expect. Changed the loco address directly by writing it to CV1, rather than going through the pre-programmed "shortcut" which, as we've established on here before, can cause confusion because it tries to rewrite some other things besides CV1.
Very happy with the way it is all working, and my earlier concerns about Mfx-equipped locos have certainly been put to rest.

That's bl**dy good.... mine was about £1400, which I thought was pretty good at the time (most UK dealers are currently asking between £1750 and almost £1900 for it)!

Found them on Google. You will get about 1.1 Euro to the £ today, so that's about £1260 - a bloody good price.

I will add them to 'Links'.

They are already in the links section, I added them in February after I bought a Kof diesel from them to "test the waters".

Just a short note to advise that after my now defunct VIk was returned to The Hobby Shop at Faversham today and will be returned by them directly to LGB in Germany.

I'll post further updates once I get any information.
