  1. Oh for the French system whereby large corporations could gain concessions on a number of different lines. Also, manufacturers were churning out fairly standard locos on a large scale. Then, some standardisation might have happened and stock moved around from one line to another. Muche easier to create a fictitious, but authentic line. No chance of that here in the UK.
  2. Historically, NG modellers have had to use whatever commercial N gauge chassis were available for locomotives in OO9 modelling, as no British-prototype RTR NG stock was available. Body kits, often freelance or semi-freelance became available to fit these chassis. The alternative was to adapt continental models. Either way, a freelance model railway was the only sensible option.
  3. some standard gauge double fairlies were very close - though not built for British railways
