Hello there,

Just a gentle note that Revolution also supplies 00 models (TEA tankers and MMA/JNA box wagons so far, with IWA vans, IWA timber carriers, HOA hoppers and IPA car carriers under development) and also a single 0 gauge locomotive (Class 37/4 in DRS livery.)

Cheers

Martrix have announced an HO A3, as usual in Marklin brand three rail form, and Trix brand two rail.

Typically they will produce matching coaches, most likely BR mk1, as the model represents preservation condition.

West Hill Wagon Works.

They also have an ebay account - https://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/westhillwago ... 7675.l2562

I've just stumbled upon this company making many unique items in N and OO including magnetic couplings.

More scales than a fishpond! :lol:

The unpainted sets of figures alone are much better than those cheap Chinese rubbish. :!:
Thanks

Oxford Rail is already included in the list under the Hornby family which it now belongs to so should it be in the list of other manufacturers?

Bufferstop, would it prudent to add a MULTI-Gauge category to the list?
Just an idea. :idea: :wink:

Is this list primarily intended for RTR? On Planet O Gauge the kit and parts suppliers are 'the big boys', I'm more than happy to go through my suppliers list but RTR would only be represented by accident so to speak.
