Hornby rolling roadAs you all know a lot of the new diesels have eight wheel drive so they can't be tested on the Hornby rolling road . After having a thunk  i took a screw driver to mine and if you take out the three screws on the bottom the track section comes away  with another set of rollers and a connector block glued in place you can now test the eight wheel drive locos .
As an extra i fitted the plug in style connector so it makes it very easy to connect my Peco cleaning brush and scraper as well

Have you sent your excellent idea to one of the railway mags yet? Could get loadsa dosh for the star letter.

Brilliant idea Pete. I should think a lot of people will find it very useful.
I don't know about 'loadsa dosh' for a start letter but it should be worth trying!

Ten quid would almost pay for the extra set of rollers .
I will have a go at sending to the mags , you never know they might print it .

Being seriuos Pete, it's one scale where you DON'T need a rolling road.
Any worktop with a free 50cm is enough space to test these little b+gg++s.
