    Yes I am an active volunteer
    A significant problem for most railways would be turning it at each end.

    Perhaps what is needed instead is the "Brighton Inspector" which offers a rather better view when running backwards (and probably better traction as well):

    Nice to see the George the Fifth project have a quick mention on the One show just. Seems they're at the model engineering exebition at Ally Pally. Just poses the question is Prince George a newbuild or is it a model in the same sense as Tompkinsons model Icebreaker was in 'Ripping Yarns'?!
