Wonder if it's this one

@kusojiji
I've checked your posts going back to last December and can find no post that's been unapproved.
Likewise I've gone back through all deleted threads to last December and cannot find anything related to an HO item. I'm not saying it didn't happen, just that I can't find it.
The Angry/Happy/Unhappy threads are for anything and are not railway (real or model) specific.
One complaint is always considered on its merits. More than one complaint can, and does, result in removal of the post/thread.
If it happens again, please ask the Mods why. We're not here as judge, jury and executioner but to maintain the family standards of the forum and, yes, apart from one I know, we are human

As it's not available yet nobody except Proses can answer the specific questions and who knows about long-term reliability?

Proses seem to come up with a lot of products, some seem to be good ideas.  I've not used any of their offerings myself.

I spotted Proses' new programmable train elevator for N scale and wondered what other members think of it.

On paper it looks quite attractive – up to 24 trains stored in a relatively small footprint, touchscreen control, programmable positions, and direct connection to the layout.

However, it also reminds me a little of the old Nelevator concept. From what I recall, Nelevator generated a lot of interest but ultimately disappeared, with a number of modellers reportedly losing deposits when the business failed.

I'm therefore interested in hearing views from those who have experience with:

• Proses products generally
• The quality and reliability of their engineering
• Customer service and after-sales support
• Whether anyone has seen one of these elevators operating in the flesh

A few questions that come to mind:

• How precise is the track alignment likely to be over time?
• What happens if power is interrupted while the lift is moving?
• Does anyone know what sort of indexing/position feedback system it uses?
• Would you trust it with a collection of expensive N gauge stock?
• Given the Nelevator experience, would you be comfortable placing a deposit on a product like this before there are a reasonable number in service?

I'm not trying to be negative, it's an innovative concept and could be a great space-saving solution, but I'd be keen to hear both positive and cautionary views before considering one.

I live not far from Jon and I went to see him a couple of months ago  he is very poorly and told me he had cancelled all the shows he was booked at this year he is thinking of closing down J Bs Model World ,I told him he will be missed at shows  and that Trainsporters  were now going to some of the shows he used to do .
He told me that he knew and has been talking to Mark and wished him good luck as its very doubtful J Bs will continue trading .
I wished Jon the best and hope that he recovers enough to continue .

KR Multicase make foam lined trays that fit in a stout cardboard box with a decent handle.

The Trainsporter cases are not over engineered in my opinion - they're well engineered. The laser cut wood support for the top layer means access8ng the bottom layer is simple, with no risk of models falling out. I've had the JB Models foam come unstuck in the past leading to a scattering of models on the floor.

As for price, think of what you paid for your models. Are they not worth spending the price of half a loco to keep them safe?

That was great, but it has me jumping back in time and place, so I've got my French hat on (and I may have to go run my 'Mistral'

Listening to some of my favourite French female singers.  While it's a cover of the incomparable Barbara, this rendition of 'Göttingen' by Julie Fuchs is beautiful, just right to slow you down after work.  I so want to be sitting outside a lovely French Cafe, sipping my coffee right now

Unfortunately, I can't access your video.

Sorry, but I am confused about this thread having to be related to the train hobby, specifically n-scale. I posted something a while ago in either this thread or the unhappy one about an HO locomotive. A comment came back about how it was related to n-scale, so I stopped following the thread. After a bit of thinking, I started asking myself how cars, hospitals, or Royal Mail is related to the n-scale hobby.

As far as people complaining, people always will. I don't know what was posted, but IMO, if it didn't break any major rules such as profanity, hate, religion, politics or the ones that warrant immediate deletion, then I think the OP should be given the dignity of a PM stating the concern and possible rewrite to change the tone.

Now, I understand that moderators are people and have feelings, but I think that the emotions should be considered before the action is taken.

My opinion, your mileage may vary.

Listening to a music compilation of suggested tracks I came across Kristina Train and was rather taken by this :

Great voice! The video had me for a moment as I thought the actress was Inger Stevens, who was on Hang 'Em High with Clint Eastwood, but the is actually Catherine Deneuve.
