Ben Lawers - which issue of RM?

[JohnR]

I recall reading an article in Railway Modeller in the early 80s about a layout called Ben Lawers, which was definitely 4mm (it had a Hornby 29), but may have been EM rather than OO.

 

I've tried tracking down the issue, but google isnt turning up anything. 

 

Does anyone know which issue it was?

Have you tried contacting the publishers - Peco?

[JohnR]

They dont, as far as I am aware, have an index of back issues. 

[JohnR]

Alternatively - is there an online index of Railway Modeller, covering that time period?

Maybe this helps, maybe not.

 

In Railway Modeller 1986 November, there is an article on modifying the Hornby Class 29 (which he terms as D6100 to cover Class 21 & Class 29).

It doesn't say anything about it being EM or not, or any layout that his 2 models were built to run on.

The author is Andrew Wakeford.

 

The index available from Peco each year, doesn't always include all layout names, which makes searching rather hard. The RotM though usually is.

The layout I am thinking of is called 'Lawers" by Peter Fletcher, and it appeared in the September 1982 issue of Railway Modeller.
