Almost too good to take out in the garden!!

Particularly like the open wagon. I don't think I would have the patience to put all the detail on my stock like that!

Excellent models.

Did you make the tail lamp yourself or is it commercially available. If available commercially can you post the maker/supplier details for me please.

Thank you Clive

They are made by Finescale, they have a working LED and tiny watch battery inside. GRS (amoungst others) sell them.

Absolutely brilliant! Given the right background they could pass as real!
