The plastic used for the loops looks to be very robust. I believe they have been designed to be as retro compatible as possible. Will be a happy day when they become available as a separate item.

I laid awake last night thinking about the PECO bashing possibilities to come....   :D

I managed to pick up two packs of the L&B liveried Peco wagons at Narrow Gauge South West this weekend just gone, and had them in operation along with some my friend Steve bought as well.





They really are superb, they run well, are crisply detailed and the finish on the lettering is great.  Parkside easily sold out of them apparently!

Two prototype coaches were also doing the rounds, and one of these had a run on Isle Ornsay at a quiet moment.



Relative to one of my ratiobashes.



On the pier with one of the wagons and an Roco HOe Feldbahn conversion.  The coaches are great, nicely detailed, crisply moulded and can negotiate 8" rad. curves.  They are going to look great in L&B livery especially!

I can't wait for the coaches, they look superb and just what the IoSR needs to go with the VoR bashes.

We have wagons on order at work and so should have availability very soon... less my sets. ;)

Stan Williams and I had a complete ready-to-run train of the new Peco wagons pulled by one of the small Liliput diesels running up and down 'Crummack' for most of the three days of Model Rail Scotland at the Glasgow SECC. The only problem we had with them was due to an expanding rail at Moughton causing an occasional derailment until fixed on the third day. They behaved fine when Michael Pritchard of Peco chatted with us on the Sunday. The coaches running on the Peco stand look really good. M P said they had been sprayed grey and one brown prior to the show. Talking to the Heljan crowd on Sunday they showed commitment by buying a copy of the 'L&B Measured and Drawn' book.

A little bird has told me Peco have begun production of one of the coaches in SR livery.

David Malton (Vulcan) announced it a few days ago on the NGRM-Online forum Roger. First to be released and in the process of distribution to the trade is the passenger coach in SR green, with the brake coach to follow. L&BR liveried coaches not yet ready.

Any idea about the price of the coaches?  Might be an idea for the L&TR to have its own L&B heritage train...

Tigger

That'll do!

Many thanks; I'll get saving!  No point in buying more than four - I've only got one L&B loco at the moment!  As it's Lew I guess it'll have to be the SR green coaches.

Hmmmm..
SR - Sto Plains Railway?
or L&B - Lancre and Bad Ass?

Like it Hugh!! ;D

Anything suitable for L&TR?

Lancre & Tsort Railway maybe?  ;D
