I spent a very long time trying to get an Ibertren cuckoo - the company does not exist any more. I understand that there is a replacement available from the 7mmnga now but i think you might have to be a member of there group to purchase them. I would give you the web link but there site seems to be down at the moment for some reason. I also do 009 and if u want some ideas please have a look at my layout here

well we now have our layout up( not running) and its very sturday...we decided to use as much as poosible from the materials that my grandmothers(whose gargage we raid every session) old cupborads...and one peice wasnt quite 4 feet in length...so we cut up our work bench as i just so happened to be 8ft now we have plenty of 4 feet lengths:p...luckily there was another 8ft plank to take its place...pics posted soon
Contact the 009 society as they have a sales stand selling secondhand stuff and iberten chassis still turn up.

If you have trouble contacting them pm or email me and I'll get Brian's number who organises it as he lives locally and I can get his number from a mate.
