Where do you start? Flats, Timber, Fertilizer wagons, Bubbles & Beets would be my list but I suppose the sensible thing to do would be to start with the most simple construction to get as many people involved and expand to more involved builds.
Your engineering skills are obvious here and you've set the standard bar very high.
The attention to detail is very apparent, can't wait to see the finished product.
More projects please...
I'm thinking of buying some Dapol Wheelbase Chassis and they come in sizes 9', 10', 11' & one for a 21 Ton Hopper (No idea what size it is).

Is the size the length of the chassis or is it from buffer to buffer?
Well done ITG, great video. The quality of diesel traction has been preserved by the ITG has saved this heritage from the scrapyard and now with its working relationship with Downpatrick there is a chance to see them working. I was at Downpatrick just before Easter and was able to experience the startup of A39 from inside the loco. I was also given a potted history of 146 and shown the major repairs carried out to it. Both the DCDR and ITC members could not be more helpful.
Just a short video showing some of the work I have been doing on Kirley Junction.
Waiting for an parcel which is in the post from Glenderg to finish off the bridges.
While respecting your views on this model, I am disappointed you give John Hazleton no credit for attempting a representation of this historic railcar.
In fairness while based on a Cravens Unit it has been modified to have some resemblance to the AEC railcar, it's a representation and does not claim to be an exact model.
I just knew of him as Tony Miles, the maker of Adavoyle Junction. Regrettably I have only seen pictures of this fantastic layout but it was an inspiration to me. The modelling skills of Tony Miles have rarely been matched.
