    I think I saw somewhere the base board is 48" x 48", not much for a grand!

    I notice that place is called Little Benton, and in editions 78 and 79 you get a dog and a herd of deer.

    my uncle is well into this sort of thing and suprisingly hes not a charlton fan, its actually quite good to see hes spent about 3 years making a village/rural area and it takes up a double bedroom in his house, each to there own i guess but this is a complete rip off

    I think any self respecting railway modeller would achieve this without the help of a magazine which is not likely to run the course.

    Anybody remember the model railways shop in Mottingham? Put a penny in the slot in the window and watch the trains go round? Gays, I think it was called. (Yeh seriously!).

    MAM, how long ago was that?

    I used to live in Mottingham and never put a penny in the slot at Gays?

    Ooh, probably 50 years or so. Left hand window dropped a penny in and you got about 6 revolutions of the track for that. A bargain!

    That sounds a seriously dodgy practice.
