Drop into the model railway club often enough, and you see some sights. Recently, one of the madder OO gauge team had a Tri-ang Battlespace Turbo, also known as the best thing ever made for model railways, and alongside it was a set of reproduction stickers.
At least one of my Turbos could do with some sticker help, so I asked about the supplier. Apparently, it's some guy on eBay who posts occasionally. I'll be keeping an eye out, as although these are thicker than the originals, they don't look bad, and certainly better than battered, or missing, decoration.
Under that sleek exterior, this Turbo car hides another secret. It's been fitted with DCC control!
Apparently, this is a reasonably easy task, with no sacrifices required to make the witchcraft work. I'm not convinced, but it does run OK...
