    2 of these from Ellis Clark Trains. Again, beautiful kits. No wheels or motors. Lovely kits. Pictures to follow.

    Cheers

    All these latest additions were in exchange for my OO gauge stuff. That's the lot gone. So they never cost me a penny. Really. Well ..... not new money otherwise it would never have happened.

    Great afternoon looking through these kits. Paddy is a terrific guy as well so it's good to put a name to a face.

    Cheers

    Some of these will go out on commission over time Ron. After I hone my skills a bit more, I'll restrict myself to some of the simpler kits. I don't want to make a mess of them.

    Some of these are wow. Especially the MOK kits. The a David Andrews are pretty good as well.
    One or two lesser known manufacturers but I think most are worth the gamble. A great mix of loco types for the loco shed and turntable modules that are planned for the Luib Bridge / Another Bridge Too Far extention. I won't have to purchase any loco's for it st all. ........ Well ...... jim's A J39 and Class 20 still had appeal but no rush there. ...... maybe Telford if I'm there.

    Cheers

    If you have a look at the 8F kits to see whether the smokebox door is brass or whitemetal it will tell you whether the kits are the newer revised versions or the original version - which mine is.
