A fair point. I will phone Hattons this morning and ask them. More later.

I have found from initially buying all the magazines that only Railway Modeller out of the commercial magazines treats N gauge as an equal and valid gauge that goes to make up the broad church of the hobby. Others seem to me to regard OO as the only proper way to go and suffer the occasional N gauge...

I don't know - but I have ordered one and Hattons have acknowledged the order. If it ever turns up I will let you know - mind you i have had a GWR railcar on pre-order for two years. :D http://www.ehattons.com/stocklist/1000407/1000589/1000640/0/Peco_Products_N_Gauge_Steam_locos/prodlist.aspx?showPr...

Under construction - Parkend a good while ago.



And next - coming apart - interpret that as you wish.

An abandoned station.



Next up - an underground train.

Wow. Terrific stuff.

Just seen this. Wonderful stuff as always - and sheep in a Forest of Dean type location on the roadside.

4th January beckons with folk like Alex writing about going back to work. Guessing this might be when you start your new job so if it is then I wish you good fortune in your new company.

Next - four diesels together.

Something you have made. The Dean Field Studies Centre at Parkend.



Next up - a group of more than 10 trees.

I have all three. The Hall is outstanding, the Grange is nearly as good (smooth but not silent like the Hall. The Manor is a nightmare and I believe is Dapol adopting an Ixion design - it chatters its tender wheels on the rails because of lousy bearing design - the harshness of the noise confines it...

Something standing next to something similar but not the same.

The front of a green Class 47 stood next to the front of a green Hymek.



Next up - a Diesel shunter but not an 08.

This is splendid stuff PNP. Well done. It's very reminiscent of the rock face at the site of the old Symonds Yat station near me. Perhaps given your painting prowess with your N gauge cat you could have a go at a falcon's nest.

A green DMU



Next up - a diesel which is not green nor blue nor maroon.
