N-Train is still available.

I have slowed down my opperation, with kits available to order on 28 days despatch from receipt of payment. Just no vinyls available.

Electra and N-Train co-operated, but were seperate entities.

Having stayed in 3 Premier Inns in the last 2 weeks (Dumbarton, Dunfermline and Cirencester) they appear to have revamped and standardized their rooms so they're all the same, and the ones I stayed at didn't have pubs next door but had their own in house restaurant called 'The Social'. Evening meals and breakfast menus at all 3 were the same.

Quote from: Newportnobby on May 16, 2026, 09:22:16 AMOh yes, the switch for the bedside light is so high up you have to sit up to reach it

a length of string to extend the pull switch cord.

No such thing as a pull cord
Small rocker switch to the left of each bedside lamp out of reach if you want to be prone and turn the lamp on or off

    

Do we actually know what happened?  There has been radio silence from them for nearly two years.  What happened to the graphics produced for the N-Train range of Underground stock kits for example?

Maybe that's why the extractor fan was on for so long     

In hotels I keep my telephone at arm's reach for emergency lighting during the night.

Quote from: Newportnobby on May 16, 2026, 09:22:16 AMTrouble is, if you have to get up in the night (which I frequently do) you have to fumble for your card in the dark and feel your way in the pitch black to the slot. 

Oh yes, the switch for the bedside light is so high up you have to sit up to reach it

As an old traveller like myself I would have thought you would take a slim line torch to light you way during the night when nature calls, And a length of string to extend the pull switch cord. Us oldies have to self improve our over night hotel/tent/dugout as per our previous experiences. :-))

Yes, I think I would raise a complaint as well. How will they know unless you tell 'em?

Having said that, I've found most Premier Inns to be pretty good, although the breakfasts can be a bit variable.

Cheers,

Chris

Get a lawyer onto this if it matters to you. Don't ask for business legal or copyright advice on a model railway forum. A little knowledge is a dangerous thing.

Agree, and a specialist in copyright / IP to boot

Generally no - you need someone familiar with contract law to figure out the contractual position. Copyright/IP lawyers are important for many things like slander of title, arguments about derivative works and the like but "who owns X" in this kind of situation is a contract and company law matter.

Furthermore if you start with a general solicitor dealing in contract law they are obliged by their professional standards requirements to tell you if a piece of work is beyond their expertise and remit so will do so if that is the case.

Plus versus the costs of an experienced IP lawyer it would be cheaper to redraw them all 


It's all getting a year ahead of it anyway. Companies House is slow, the same things can appear in the record if a company is being converted from ltd company to privately held and so on.

When I untangled Ultima from being a ltd company it sat for months showing things overdue and everything was fine.
