    Accucraft US have revealed their live steam 1:32 scale Big Boy..... now that is very nice. What a shame I don't have a Gauge 1 circuit or wallet to match!

    Thanks for the link - lovely model but what a shame about the music - I'd rather hear the music of the exhaust!

    Agreed! The thing that puts it in perspective is the A3 passing on the inner circuit - it looks about half the height!

    Superb model!

    I can't imagine how big someone's garden would have to be to get a decent run out of that.
