The problem is that in trying to sort one issue you discover others.
So it was when he set up one half of the fiddle yards to try and sort an electrical niggle on the 'cab control' wiring and found that a number of the indicator LEDs on the Rhyd Ddu end panel had failed.
So he's had to open all that up to replace them.
Quite why they've failed is a mystery.
The ones in the control panel on Dduallt have lasted for more than 20 years, but after just two years in the west of Scotland climate these have gone pop!
Is there a connection?
Anyway, I thought you might also like to see a snap of the loco he's been using for testing duties.
Our original Dundas Linda, which had major surgery to its Ibertren chassis to fit it with cranks and outside frames (and a heart transplant with a Mashima motor) is still going strong.
