i suddenly realise it’s been a year since my last blog. Work has been ongoing on many topics, we’ve had a plug in Model Rail magazine and diversified in to some 1/18th scale car parts, but were still focusing on the railways.
The originals Elton Crossing signal box has been totally redrawn from scratch due to some errors found in it measurement wise. This has replaced the original model. It is now available in three different scales of N,OO & O gauge.
as will be seen on the PAA link, we have been working on the sand hopper. One reason behind this is the fact that I was able to assist in the preservation of one of these wagons so now have the chance of accurate measures. More parts will be available for this model soon including the pneumatic pistons for the bottom doors that Hornby didn’t model.
Hopefully come the Autum (fall for anyone in the US who follows me) we will be back to some new design ideas and have some more photos to show of what’s in the pipeline. Our last bit under development in the NSR category are wicket gates and fencing to compliment the crossing gates we already produce, but this may only be in the larger O gauge at this time.
bye for now
