RMweb Gold Re6/6 Posted February 1, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 1, 2020 On further investigation, 'Holcin' is a Swiss aggregates company so it would be assumed that it's in Switzerland but still no nearer as to what it actually is/does!

It's a bit of a niche market even before considering any inherent reluctance to spend 765 euros on a card kit. The fantastic thing about the ferry model is that you can load a P87 continental freight in at one end and it comes out the other end in P4, or vice versa. Not bad for €765. (Doesn't work with HO/OO though - just stays at 16.5mm gauge.) 1 8 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
