Nightmare scenario: carefully ballasted round a point, only to find it wasn't careful enough and the thing would not lock off. Fortunately it's a Peco point with the spring block held in place by metal tabs. Opened the tabs, lifted off the bias spring and bock, and found a piece of grit in the middle. Cleaned, lightly oiled, reassembled, and it now works a treat. Three cheers for repairable!

Aye. And a bit fiddlier - I needed my extra small pliers.
Bought by the wife when she worked as an analytical chemist, for fettling Perkin Elmer HPLCs. Or something.

Oh that's interesting....always wondered how you analyse a compound...suppose that what they did to Kryptonite in the Superman 2.
Yes I know it's only pretend.....
