as mentioned in this mornings MRE. Hornby have released more details about what will be offered in the "railroad" range.

here is a link to a retailer that will aparently be stocking it.

I am very pleased about the announcement of this range as it will not only get more youngsters into the hobby with mice models that they can afford but it will also give us kitbashers something to detail and weather withought feeling guilty about it.

The only thing that i regard as an omission from this range is a 5 plank wagon. its one of those things where people dont want just 3, they want 30 of them and this sort of range would be perfect for them.

roll on september.

Interesting to see what appears to be the old Lima level crossing (Yuk!!) in the line up.

You're being too hard on yourself in this case - 'm' and 'n' are adjacent on the keyboard, so I think this was a slip of the fingers. I would not have commented otherwise.

Wish they would ditch the Lima level crossing, love the scale 10 foot drop in the middle to put the rails through. Can just imagine the letters to the council and Network Rail in real life.

"Dear Sir,

My car fell down a ten foot deep drop on your level crossing, I would like to sue for damages etc......"
