Another classic video Rik, your line looks wonderful in the sunshine. Well done in the heat we have been enduring, worth every scorching minute!

If I was in the market for yet another loco I would bite your hand off for this one! Unfortunately, I have more than enough to cope with, so it's not for me this time. However, I do have one of those GRS chassis and I agree it is a superb runner and very well made. The motor is rated at 12-24v but m...

Whatever the track-gang say would be OK by me,... I wouldn't stand in their way!

Good to see you out and about again Rod, your garden looks very tidy and easy to manage, so very little maintenance required on the railway once installed. The bending down part is not the best for us 'seniors' so perhaps a small pit with steps down would be useful, if you can find someone to help o...

I strongly suggest you watch his construction videos on Youtube before attempting the build, the chassis are a complex assembly which must be...

She looks wonderful Rik, a real triumph in appearance and running. No complaints about the steam sound with this one as it isn't possible to see whether it ties in with wheel rotation.

Super job Trevor, the handrail looks great and the track-bed moving forward rapidly.... LBS will stay in business as long as you are in their area!

Room under the bonnet for a tiny magnet if required?

Serious stuff that, and still some garden left over for the extension!

A real bargain for such a collection, we will probably see some of them again sold separately soon.
