I read the title as "Roundhouse Clearance" and thought it was a link that was going to cost me some money  ;) ;)

Love the tram and smart move retiring a year early  8)

Sorry for the false alarm. I imagine that a Roundhouse Clearance would empty a few wallets.

Thanks!

Nice one Nick!

That's a nicely lined out Clarence Dave. Just needs appropriate railway or company names added to the boards on the roof panel.

A garden railway friend has just got a yellow Clarence and has already come up against running problems on other layouts due to its large loading gauge & weight. I'm also not impressed with the Exmitter EX7 transmitter that Roundhouse are supplying with their current R/C locomotives. There is no ratchet on the throttle channel control or an adequate friction device so I found trying to run his Clarence at a constant slow speed around an indoor layout with tight curves & a slight gradient somewhat impossible.
