MattDitch Posted December 23, 2021 Author Share Posted December 23, 2021 I just wanted to take this opportunity to wish all of our customer a Merry Christmas and a happy new year.

MattDitch Posted January 2, 2022 Author Share Posted January 2, 2022 I thought I'd kick off the new year with a sale. If you use the code NEWYEAR22 you'll get 22% off on all orders. The code is only valid on my website The sale will run for 1 week from today. Also, I thought now would be a good opportunity to launch a new model. I wanted to make something a bit different. So, say hello to the Sentinel steam wagon. It comes with a number of separately fitted parts, which the builder can add if they choose, such as, axle details, a lamp, steps for the cab and boiler. The model uses the Kato 108 chassis and can be purchased from either of the below links. Website eBay 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattDitch Posted January 16, 2022 Author Share Posted January 16, 2022 New 009 Kit! For a while now, I've wanted to do a more accurate model of the Clogher Valley Railway's Sharp Stewart tank engines. The railway had 6 of these engines, sadly none of which survive. They were built to run cab first and were turned on a turntable at each end of the line. They were also fitted with large cow catches at the rear only. On my model, this is an optional extra, and you can fit another coupling instead. The kit can be purchased from my online shop here or from my eBay page 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold 46444 Posted January 16, 2022 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 16, 2022 Recently I've completed one of Matt's Kerr Stuart Sirdar tramway version prints and very pleased I am too. A lovely build and one which allows some Old School modelling to boot. My blog entry can be found here: Well recommended and just a happy customer. Thanks for looking. Cheers, Mark 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattDitch Posted February 9, 2022 Author Share Posted February 9, 2022 I've mentioned elsewhere that I had a couple of new 009 locomotive kits to release today. These are as follows.... Up first is "Mini Beddgelert" a Hunslet saddle tank with motion covers designed to fit the Kato 11-105 chassis. This is followed by cut down Hunslet side tank "Russ". This is loosely based on Russell as it appeared after its height was reduced to run on the Ffestiniog railway. And finally we have a mini Hunslet "Eva" These models will also be available from my eBay shop here 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
