I've been mulling over the idea for a small layout using early tube stock.

However, it looks like I might have to scratchbuild them. Does anyone know of any kits available?

Not seen any. I do have drawings for 1938 stock, which is also interesting of course because it still runs on the Isle of Wight with some modifications.

A chap on one of the Facebook Groups is finishing off a 1938 model. He plans to sell the bodies, to which I'm also keen on buying.

Bob at NTrain was creating a 1959 I believe.

After I posted I found the n Trains website :doh: The body looks reasonable but the chassis doesn't look right to me.

I've also just remembered that Kings Park had some 1959 stock which I think were scratch built. I have a contact there and will ask.

Who is it on Facebook and which group please?
