Do your trains run badly?
Do your locos stop for no apparent reason?
Do coaches and wagons come off at points and bends?

This DVD could change all that !

Unreliable running, electrical problems and derailments are the bane of any layout-owner's life. 
Locos that don't start, points that don't throw properly, rolling stock that falls off the track at the first opportunity – it's not how a model railway ought to run.
Modellers Tim Shackleton, Tony Gee and Ken Hill have been building, operating and exhibiting model railways for more than 30 years. In that time they've learned what it takes to create a layout that works consistently, runs smoothly and doesn't let you down – especially in front of a discerning public.
In this DVD they reveal the secrets of successful operation as they talk you through some familiar mechanical and electrical problems.
Prevention, they suggest, is better than cure. You'll see how they set up an effective maintenance regime as well as learning the best ways of diagnosing faults and putting them right. 
Among the topics covered in detail are: 
• Improving RTR Running 
• Running In a New Loco 
• Problems with Pickups 
• Using a Multimeter 
• Checking Wheels and Trackwork 
• Track and Wheel Gauges 
• Adjusting Back-to-Backs
