Railway Modeller December 2012

[Graeme Dunbar]

The last sentence on the back page of the "Track plan special" in the latest issue of RM:

"At the time of writing, 009 modelling still relies heavily on kit- and scratchbuilt rolling stock, though hopefully that is set to change in 2013."

Intriguing or what?  ???

I haven't spotted anything else in the issue itself, but I haven't read it all yet.

Yes - that got me wondering, too...

[Graeme Dunbar]

I see there has been a rash of speculation in "another place". Perhaps best let things rest unless anyone has any concrete evidence.

Still it was good to see a couple of 009 track plans though for the life of me I cannot fathom the sector plate unless it both rotates and slides.

Edit: found time to read the RM itself yesterday - two 009 articles!

Hi

As owner of Feltwell Road I can tell you that the sector plate only rotates but has 2 tracks on it. I think the way the layout plan has been "squeezed" into the space has affected its perspective - it does serve all the tracks. The layout itself was featured in the Railway Modeller Jan 2011.

Best regards

I think we now know what that cryptic clue was all about! ;D
