      More than likely, I just preordered straight off, check out the website. I'd be interested in seeing the results of your Proto-Deltic though, I just when straight to the source because I can't imagine them producing another batch after this one

      CVA 01 was a 1960s proposal from the Royal Navy for a class of 2-5 35'000 ton Aircraft carriers, they were cancelled in 1966, but if like me you suffer from an adiction to Alternative History there a nice talking point. Much like the TSR-2 there cancelation is still contoroversial as it forced the RN to make do with two very old Majestic class carries and later three small Invincibles. in refelection the idea of a Nimitz stlye fleet of UK carries is a nice idea if you write fiction, but s...

    A scale length 00 gauge model of th East coast main line would be 302.09 miles long, how wrong am I?

    1. alibuchan

      alibuchan

      about 296 miles out from my calculations. I could be very wrong. I got 5.17 miles

      I was going to ask how a 393 mile long line could be 302 miles at 1/76! I make 5.17 miles too.
