There is a short clip of her running here, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GP-INzs7tcE&feature=youtu.be This was taken before the boiler bands & dome were added.  Apologies for the dodgy camera work, i'm afraid my videos aren't in the same league as Mr Birds! Now, that´s an excellent video ...

Are Schug planning to do one? I hadn´t heard that!

I admit to the crime of motorizing both an OB Bedford and a London RT double decker from Sunstar. Not cheap to begin with, but fun to play with ...

Argyle have also mentioned the prospect of having Accucraft make a 2'6" gauge Puffing Billy Garrat but if the NA is anything to go by it will be years away and cost a fortune and also be too big for many 32mm gauge lines. I wasn´t able to find any reference to the Puffing Billy Garratt project...

Two Billy chassis kits  at £742  plus the Fowler boiler at £416, a total of £1158,  plus some scratch building,  has more appeal. a Fowler boiler is not enough for two billy chassis kit... i prepare drawing to build a k1 and as you write i will be use 2 billy chassis but i need to build the boiler ...

Swanage Models made the original, and if I understood correctly, the loco was taken over by its present manufacturer.

Thanks for this. I wasn´t aware that this Regner loco had a wooden body.
P.S: For all questions Germanic, feel free to ask.

Swift Sixteen's stand was one of those that was always very busy when I kept revisiting (that's after I found it as it was not opposite the 'Rhydypenderyn' layout as per the Show Guide, and was hidden behind the catering outlet whilst looking from that layout - my base for the day). So I only had t...

Although the prototype is way out of my normal modelling range I've been really taken by the quality of this kit. I am putting out a tentative feeler for weather anyone wants the kit built for them as whilst I'd love to build the kit I don't particularly want the rail car on my railway or have the ...

That saddle tank looks nice.

Came across this site with several photos and info in Swedish. http://www.brane.nu/modeller/anglok/hamra/foerebild.html kandnwlr: Are you going to make a model of Hamra? I thought I might have found someone to do the hard work for me, but unfortunately no. Do you know anyone who might be interested?

That´s really going to look good. I like the way the buildings fit into the landscape.

Looking forward to finding out what this one ends up looking like

Wind´s blowing hard here, but fortunately it´s the 2nd of April on the K&NWLR.

This looks very much like the way that the French National Rail Museum in Mulhouse, uses the space between the Trains at their annual exhibition. Wish you guys weren´t quite so far away.

Looking good. Sorely tempted.

"Lyn" already looks at home!
