Last week I finally had a chance to fettle the lost wax castings that will form the patterns for the castings for the MGWR locos kits. I expect to have the 650 Class, the coach sides and van kits available in Mid 2018, with the option of personal delivery in Ireland & the UK in June/July if we can charter an Antonov Myria for the family and the kits. Of course the bungalow could always morph into a Scale laser ply building kit for American, Australian & NZR modellers Just waiting complete the final touches including interior re-decoration and landscaping. The bungalow was constructed in native hardwoods, retaining its 1920s interior joinery and fittings. We have replaced the roof, repaired exterior wall cladding, re-wiring, modernised kitchen and bathroom. Not bad after more than 90 years. If that's part of your garden railway, I give up now.......😀👍. Mega & very well done sir. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully some of the proceeds of the sale will find their way into the model railway slush fund to keep JM Design in business and some more stock for the garden railway. The garden railway at our own place took over 10 years and $20k investment in track and rolling stock to get to its current unfinished state. I have a very understanding and supportitive family . The renovation is basically part of a transition from my current day job towards retirement. John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiveController Posted September 12, 2018 Share Posted September 12, 2018 .... or even better a full length/WIDTH coach? (maybe after the 650?) (I'm waiting patiently, I know you have a full schedule) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mayner Posted September 12, 2018 Author Share Posted September 12, 2018 It looks like there is enough interest to produce another batch of overlays, I will check with my engraver and confirm cost. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DiveController Posted September 16, 2018 Share Posted September 16, 2018 (edited) Good morning John, Can we also include the 1339-50 Side Corridor Standard Coaches? They have an unusual door/window arrangements which adds a lot of appeal and were easily spotted on old CIE footage of the prototype? I'll commit to several of these and send you a PM. Some photos of your own below from the site to whet the appetites. K Edited September 17, 2018 by DiveController Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
