  1. Lochgorm Kits is not trading - the Highland Railway Society has stocks. http://www.hrsoc.org.uk/Modelling.html
  2. NOTE the height of the body at the roof peak is 5ft 11 not 4 ft 11.... just noticed the typo.
  3. Oops The height is actually 5ft 11 not 4 ft 11!!
  4. For the record, the two small RNAD vans from Gosport Nos 9 and 18 are now in North East Scotland. No 18 is at Maud Railway Museum and No 9 is at Peterhead Prison Museum. The connection is the ownership of the Admirlty which had a railway from the harbour and prison to a quarry at Stirlinghill. see friendsofmaud.org.uk Des
  5. Thanks for the shout out, Aaarvark. My name is actually Des Byrne but because everyone gets it wrong... So yes I'm accessible as info@friendsofmaud.org.uk by email. The pdf prints use similar techniques to other download sites, print on 160 or 200gsm paper and glue to 1mm mount board. I have devised a way to create transparent windows using masking tape for the frames on acetate film. These can then be painted with a fine brush and steady hand helped by a magnifier or goggles. I stick tape onto film and then cut 1mm wide slices using a guillotine, but scissors can be used too. This then is peeled off the film and used to form the frames. Here's a GNSR "Verandah" waiting room test piece with the trial windows out front. Inside are the alternative printed windows with acetate in front of them.
