Hello all,
I am looking for some help/ advice.
Now I am heavily embarked on my first outside railway project and after 9 months of basic civil engineering, am now getting to the railway detail bits ( actually getting the track out ).
One thing I had planned on (after being shown a while ago ) was a Pneumatic control system for controling points and signals - Along with being highly recommended, it seams so simple... That is apart from getting hold of it !!!
I have found 2 sources. Brandbright - who import a USA system (Easy Air), which they tell me is no longer made (further enquires in US confirmed this and a sad tale to boot). Brandbright to their credit were helpful pointing me at another system produced again in the US by SVRR, which does have a UK distributor (B2B6). This seams very expensive, and early indications are this is is not stocked locally. (Along with this I need to check actuators dimensions, which may be too large for some of my locations).
Does anybody know of any other solutions as I really hesitant to switch to electrics for this ?
Many thanks
Neville
