I wonder why Hattons have stopped selling new Farish & Bachmann products? I know you can still get existing Farish & Bachmann stock at Hattons but Hattons aren't selling any newly released stock & appear to have largely dropped Farish & Bachmann.

Hi mate. Gaugemaster & Dapol both do rolling stock in O, OO & N gauge, 3 different scales. I'm surprised neither of these companies have gone down the z gauge route for British rolling stock. Both Dapol & Gaugemaster collection are doing fantastic model locos in N gauge of late, with 5 pole motors & all driving wheels. If these 2 companies could transfer these skills to z gauge we could have quality British rolling stock in this scale. These 2 companies are really leaving Graham Farish behind with regards to N gauge. Farish have lots of new products due for release & have been due for release for years now! It's like they're still trying to sell off old stock first that just doesn't seem to be shifting, before releasing new material! Graham Farish used to be my first choice when buying N gauge rolling stock, but I've virtually given up with them now. I just hope Farish doesn't fold because that'll mean one less N gauge manufacturer! They seriously need to get their fingers out!! I too have several t gauge train sets, the EWS starter set with 1 loco, oval of track & battery operated controller. I liked this so much that I bought a 2nd EWS loco to add to the set. Since then I've bought 2 of each of the 2 different HST train sets with different sized tracks & done as you've quoted in your post! Vid link below: https://1drv.ms/v/s!Ak-2LtKBk-iUgjHUOAH_swgKmfRk

That would be good. N gauge is my main scale for modelling in but I really do love TGauge for it's novelty. It's almost like you could do a layout on top of a birthday or Christmas cake as decor, it's so small!

TGauge is great! I have 2 HST starter sets with different track sizes which allows you to run 1 oval of track inside the other, thus giving you a very basic layout. I also have the very basic EWS 67007 starter train set where you only get 1 loco, an oval of track & a battery operated controller. I've since bought a 2nd stand alone EWS 67007 loco to add to the existing loco & they both run excellently together! It would be good if TGauge could do some DMU train sets with 2 or even 3 cars! TGauge unlike Z gauge has really taken off in the UK with UK rolling stock & as technology improves, I can only seeing TGauge improving! Below is a video link of my basic TGauge double oval track layout! https://1drv.ms/v/s!Ak-2LtKBk-iUgjHUOAH_swgKmfRk

I'm an n gauger & a t gauger & have my eye on both those Kato sets.
