I would like to wish all my customers and friends a great Christmas and a peaceful and calm 2019

Maybe the ultimate Christmas Train

If it's not too late I have a PIKO Christmas train for sale - all in perfect condition, hardly used and in the original packaging.

This is the full sound version (not Christmas sounds). It has factory fitted DCC but runs just as well (including the sound) using an analogue controller. This would be £550 for the locomotive and three coaches.

Check out the Thomes in G scale from Bachmann. There is also Percy, coaches and trucks. James the red engine, Emily and Toby plus several different trucks now available. Thomas and Percy sets and individual items are in the range. These run on any G scale track and power supply. I have fitted DCC and sound in Thomas, Percy,James and Emily and they work very well. I now have WINSTON Sir Topham Hatts railcar see the Bachmann US site

Arrived at Bo'ness, home of the Scottish Railway Preservation Society on Saturday 15th November 2014 is this North British Glasgow built LMS/Turkish Railways 8F 2-8-0 locomotive 45170. The picture suggests it might be in steam but this is not the case as the vapour is being supplied by Austerity 0-6-0T number 19 which was moving 45170 around the station. You can now see this locomotive in the Museum of Scottish Railways at Bo'ness

If you want to know how a steam locomotive works, thanks to some friends of the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway here are some diagrams to explain it.

In case you are wondering about the SGR company car? No? Anyway the Morris Minor has gone to Germany and this has taken it's place, 50 year old MGB - not quite so practical but great fun...
