Bang on Tony, brilliant.

You should enter that for 'Model of the Month' on the 16mm NGM site.

Clever stuff. I have a nice tea bag box that is crying out for a skip chassis.

Handsome looking wagons. Great to see a NG railway with such premium brand customers!

Smashing wagon that Tony.
I think you should build a rake. Shame about the amount of portable you would need to consume to get the boxes.

Marmite is the only food stuff that demonstrates all the properties of an industrial lubricant.

Lovely stuff, great on toast and fantastic on porridge.
