I was talking with David Hippey when the builder of that layout came to his stand to show David that the stock is made from a HGLW loco & electric chassis kit & a flat bed wagon kit. It is amazing the diversity that is being applied to these simple but cost effective kits.

And it was great to see & hear that your commissioned coach is to be released in his expanding range.

My box cab was in attendance but it didn't get to run on the day... Mine is Maroon and white, wider, longer and a lot heavier....

Caradon's name was chosen because a local Mineral line LCR (looe Caradon Railway)which had three locos. These were named Caradon, Looe and Kilmar. The colour of these saddle tanks was the same.....
Glad she is still providing fun it make the mods well worth the effort. There is something said for a simple loco that works well.
