Hello,
Can I shorten a Hornby R083 buffer stop ? Is there any problem after doing that ? Thanks.

No. I’ve done it many times. Just glue it in place.

No sorry, don’t have any now, but it looks just like your picture in front of the red line.

It's nice to see someone else has come up with the same solution as I was thinking of doing. Space is going to be a bit tight for sidings on the layout I'm making for my son and was thinking the same thing.
