Any news on this layout? Can we see some pictures as they seem to have disappeared...

Oxford Horse Trams had a depot in Green Street Oxford. I think the building is still the same one. The upper concrete lintel shows the height of the large doors that were there when I lived further along the street in the early '80s:

Thank you for the warning about the tiny radius. I had been intending to use them for some industrial Tankwagen using 4 wheel locos. 

http://www.minitrains.eu/mt-acc.html has track. I have been  interested in using it as a replacement for the old eggerbahn track. Any one else used it?

But according to the plate "Theodor" has had no maintenance at all! Or perhaps the thunderstorms at night remove the chalk marks?

The centre wheel has indications of a belt drive to the rear axle.

I suspect that the BGS felt they might attract more converts to modelling the Broad Gauge from 2mm Association members than from NGS society members, after all modelling Boad gauge in 2mm would probably require a lot of scratch building. I seem to remember Kelvin White writing something on BG in 2mm for the magazine and him talking about it at a BGS meeting I attended at the Origninal Temple Meads station.

There is also Neath Riverside modelled by Hendreladis: http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/65499-whats-on-your-2mm-work-bench/page-75?hl=neath&do=findComment&comment=2930681

I would love to see more pictures of this model - I am greatly intrigued. I began to build a GWR BG tilt wagon some time ago but could not get the requisite end sections to work in plastic. I must try again in thin metal.
