  1. Some wagon body mouldings/kits for the LSWR devotee in 2mm, 4mm, 7mm and Gauge 1

     

    I've recently discovered the delights of GRA Models and it's ever helpful proprietor, Graham Baker.  I have just placed an order for some resin wagon bodies with Graham and will come back with my thoughts once received.

    The catalogue (including a vast array of military vehicles in many scales) is available via a link on the GRA Models website.  Please be aware that due to an increase in the cost of raw materials Graham has had to increase the price, so those quoted will no longer be correct.

     

    I have no connection with this business other than being a customer (so usual disclaimers apply!) and will report back once I have the mouldings.

     

    Cheers

  2. It's clearly not a cheap book.  Didn't he do a four volume edition?  I bought Volume 4 from Book Law for a tenner earlier this year.

     

    I've not come across a copy, but one day my search may not be in vein :banghead:

     

    The best bit from their ebay ad is:

     

    "About Book2Basics :

  3. There is no reason why a Thumper should not appear on such a layout.  They might in fact have reached that far if the lines had survived a little longer - WR DMUs made it after all.

     

    Indeed, in fact a Thumper was spotted (well, as soon as it arrives) on a late 1950'S ex-LSWR branch in South Devon - so why not Cornwall!

     

    Looking forward to this one too :good:
