Hi All,
My name is Steve B, based in the Midlands, UK I have been lurking for a while.. I am currently building a small fictitious HO Swiss layout. as I enjoy my little SBB shunters, namely Trix Ee 3/3 and my latest recruit a lovely Rivarossi Em 3/3.(an elderly model but a lovely model)
As I run all DCC, I have equipped the Ee 3/3 with the Krois digital coupling system, which is a delight to use..
Shunting goods wagons is what I like most..
Anyway, to the point..
I note something that seems specific to the SBB shunters and that is :
the upper centre light sometimes shows a white "V" on a black background
Try as I have, I cannot find what this indication means
Is it V = forward in German ?
Is it used when the loco is stationary ?
Is it a directional signal ?
I just haven't a clue... ! Can anyone enlighten me, please ?
I shall post updates on my little layout, if you are interested.. (and I discover how to do it !) though its only bare track at the moment... testing reliability, etc
Cheers
Stevie B
