The Sensible Red Button

With the World becoming increasingly madder with events seemingly escalating and running away I turn to my model railway for some relief. The manufacturers of DCC controlled trains know that at times you can get in a situation where things can go wrong and you can see a disaster unfolding as perhaps two trains head on a collision course with each other. Their answer is a Red Button on the controller which far from increasing the speed of the trains heading for impact, just stops everything on the layout. 

The sensible red button!

The sensible red button!

Once pressed you then have a chance to assess what is going wrong, sort it out and then get underway again once the problems have been solved! 

Maybe all the World's leaders should have a model railway - it might lead to a more settled planet!

On other matters a bit more decaling on the Scania 143H with the front bumper now having its pin stripping added which was a real pain to do. These four decals took me over an hour to do. Lots more to do but hopefully not as complex!
