  1. Did he keep the reject etches? There might be enough viable parts in them to create one or two more sets....
  2. That may have been coincident with Backwoods Miniatures, which was also trying to make narrow-gauge more finescale
  3. Is Tony's method based on hand-drawn artwork rather than CAD?
  4. There's all sorts of things going on in that D14 - it looks like two or three different designs in one.
  5. Funny you mention that. Many years ago, the late Lynden Emery started a narrow-gauge group within the Scalefour Society, applying P4 standards. It seemed to be going well until he died, after which development work tailed off.
  6. An idea for an elaborate conversion kit there....
  7. How does it compare to the oul Mainline and current Bachmann bodies?
  8. The Rover P6 never quite recovered from its depiction in that show....
  9. That's cheap compared to this greedy eejit
  10. If he replies, please could you let him know there's a second set of etches that will find a ready buyer here? I'm not on RMWeb. Thanks in anticipation.
  11. I'd certainly consider putting my name down for a kit to build Lough Erne, one of the 1949 pair.
  12. I'm not sure I'd want a compromised 21mm. It would be like HO RTR standards, but 87/76ths bigger.
  13. Too late again.... *shrugs*
  14. I meant generally.
  15. Des: Out of interest, would it be possible to reduce the existing 7mm scale artwork down to 4mm scale?
  16. Maybe it's time for some sort of cement bubble kit for the periods when the IRM ones aren't available?
  17. 1000+ isn't small, when you remember that Bachmann batches are 502/504 at a time. A small batch would be more like 250 plus spares (if such support is being made available).
  18. This one is available as a Finney kit from Brassmasters. Would be an expensive way of testing the theory.....
  19. The good thing is that you can still go to St. Clabbert's Cultra to see no.102. I think we can safely say that it won't be going anywhere.
  20. Will the bogies be available separately, like the Mk2s? There'll be some who'll want more accurate bogies to go under their IFM coaches, etc.
  21. That will be at least 350 by now
  22. Hopefully not accompanied by the sound of a can being kicked down the road
  23. IRM's very limited runs remind me of the Swiss specialist HRF, who never do more than one run of a model. You could probably buy a decent used car for what HRF models can command on the secondhand market.
  24. The Fremo get-togethers are a great way of making the rolling stock clock up the mileage.
