Thank you, glad a few spotted it... haha.

Yes the Hornby feature I think was sort of on the cards since 2010? When Baxter won a little competition and part of that was to be in the mag, due to things and goings on's it never happened, but got contacted in 2016 and arranged it. Pleased to see it's gone full circle, it's had its moment.

And yes making transfers in The railway guide to modelling, I still have a few things being written for that one, but short of cash at the moment.. so quite a few are on the shelf.

Not updated this topic for a while, but a few models have arrived, which I knew about thanks to contacts on the Bluebell, back in March drawings were taken back in March 2017 of the P-Class, didn't know who by at the time, till later on in the year. First lot arrived early in 2018 from Hatton's.

This included 323 Bluebell in it's current 2010 livery, a blue version of the SECR livery.
This was followed later by 178 in fully lined SECR green livery.

5 Extra liveries were announced for release in August, one of which number 27, which has just arrived.

Here are some photo's of the first 2 P's and the H Class of course.

As the Bluebell had their Branch Line event back in March... with W24 Calbourne from my local railway I thought I might as well go, and because I have most of the locomotives now... I could run a 4mm version...
