Some new four wheeled coaches arrived today and quickly put away by my daughter. Christmas presents for me. I was allowed one to run now.
A four wheeled coach in Leeds, Scarcroft & Wetherby Railway livery. Here she is with two North British Railway six wheelers on her first run.

I have mentioned previously that I am a supporter of the Preservation & Restoration of Medway Queen P.S.. As a way of bringing in extra monies one way has been to have Special Edition Railway Wagons. They have been made by Dapol in both 00 Gauge and N Gauge.
The Medway Queen made seven (7) trips to Dunkirk in 1940 bringing back troops.

Here are two wagons at Clarence Dock.

Your scenery is astonishing, such attention to detail that even stands a close up picture :) But unless I am mistaken the wagon in the 1st picture is not on the rails, could I be right ?

Thanks once again fourtytwo.
You had me checking the wagon. Sometimes I think wagons have derailed, but haven't.

I acquired an old match truck in a job lot. Still needs repairing but runs well.
