Even more useful were the Bill Bedford etches to improve 4 and 7mm wagons. John 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wizard Models list the bending jigs, but they are currently out of stock. Might be worth asking Bill Bedford who made them. Adrian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
multivac Posted November 24, 2023 Share Posted November 24, 2023 If I remember correctly Bill Bedford sold the rights to those "Bill Bedford Models" to Elieen's. I don't know what happened to the the masters. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

These was a suggestion in another thread on here that some of this range (specifically the axleguards) might become available through Scaleforum Stores, I'm hoping that's still the case.

Some of the more popular Bill Bedford range is due to be available from the S4 Soc. shortly; some of the more specialist items are also likely to be available, but probably to special order and therefore longer lead time (info from the latest issue of S4 News) HTH 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I *think* I saw mentioned that the Bill Bedford range may have gone to one of the societies - perhaps the Scale Four one. Don't quote me on that though!

All I was told is these things don't happen over night... a year later they haven't reappeared as they were an Elieen's special... some bits are now with Cambrian on eBay. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
