Any chance you could tell me what wagons are covered in the N gauge engineers stock Thanks! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
westerner Posted February 11, 2010 Author Share Posted February 11, 2010 Russell The wagons are: BR 12T Pipe (Parkside Dundas PN07) LNER/BR 13T Highfit (Parkwood ModelsTCRC No1) BR 13T Medfit (Parkwood Models TCRC No12) I think with only scanning the article that these are wagons that would have fallen into Enginners department use although not built as ballast/spoil wagons. I hope this helps. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisf Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 The appearance, brief as it was, of Potterbourne has been long awaited, even though there was only one photo and one paragraph! Let us see what Hornby Magazine does with it. Chris Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope this helps. Note: the rights (moulds) of the Parkwood kits have been sold to the N Gauge Society. I don't know if this restricts their sale to Society members. They are, though, still in production - we made 250 of kit 12 last week. Barry, Cambrian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
westerner Posted February 14, 2010 Author Share Posted February 14, 2010 One hates say it but it still appears that BRM has a ECML/LNER/BR(ER) bias with the reappearance of Billingham (as good as it is) which was in BRM less than two years ago. Surely there are good mainline layouts from other regions around. I also think that saying the track plan was in the June 2008 issue does a disservice to new readers of BRM and all those who do not have that issue to hand. Like ChrisF I eagerly await to see what Hornby Mag does with Potterbourne. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

6029 King Stephen Posted March 12, 2010 Share Posted March 12, 2010 A petty question, I'm sure but my March subscription issue has "Month 2010" on the spine rather than "March 2010". As a new subscriber to the magazine with the March issue being the first, I wondered if this was normal for subscriber issues? If it is, then it is going to be rather confusing to find a particular issue if they all say "Month Year"! Is this a ploy to get you to buy the binders to hold them.....?
