I've used the e-mail and I get a response by e-mail or telephone within 30 minutes. Very prompt in my opinion.

Hi Guys,
Thanks for your responses - would much prefer to contact by e:mail as then they should be able to see what the problem is .....and then get back to me with a reasoned response. When calling (especially from the other side of the pond) you never know if the person answering the phone is the one who knows the answers.......If there is one guy who should be contacted can anyone give me his name? My feeling is that If Accucraft don't like answering e:mails then they should not waste time giving it out ........
Jason, minimum curve radius is LGB Radius 3 but out on the main line am using Aristocraft curves upto 10ft radius with LGB Radius 5 points.
Shorting out is occuring on both front and rear axles. Think the front axle problem can be fixed by fine-tuning the springing but the on the back axle the the flanges are making contact with the ribs that run along the bottom of the car body. This could probably be solved by filing an indent in the ribs so that the flanges don't make contact. I suggested this remedy to Accucraft in my unanswered e:mails because I don't want to start filing if there is another known solution to this problem.
Goose No. 2 has been fitted with LGB/Massoth decoder plus a Pheonix Sound System. There is a possibility that when No.2 was put back together by the guy who installed it, it was not put back properly but I doubt that as the guy has already done the same with Goose No.5....I realise that Goose No.5 is constructed differently but he knows what he is doing.....and has not messed up anything yet
Look forward to your feedback. Many thanks,
Keith
PS; if you want to see some pics of what I've been doing in the garden have a look at: www.gscalemad.co.uk/forum/index.php?showtopic=5925 The geese have not been let loose on this section loose as the link back to the main line has not yet been completed - that's down to be done this spring!!
