Lydham Manor Problems

I bought the 00 gauge DC version of Dapol's Lydham Manor and it's a lovely looking model - not quite sure about the shade of green. However, it will not run over points, Peco or Hornby, either facing or running through - the front pony truck derails on most of them. Sent it to DCC Concepts who check...

Ballast Bins

I see that Bachmann are offering ballast bins with 'Etched metal window frames with realistic glazing'.
