Just read that Dapol have signed the rights to make Class 68 according to Model Rail, want one will put it on Santa List for 2015 ! Lol
Another house move despite "never again" has given me a second floor layout so Geominster Mainline & Heritage Line will be modified and enlarged with siding storage.

My Facebook Diary is Geominster if anyone wants to view it please ask, it is a private group requiring acceptance, thanks.

This then is my third version modified which has been improved from previous efforts and lessons learned.

Geominster was my first project which has now been dismantled. Having learnt so much from  previous Geominster projects this is the latest one.

Latest Youtube video is here.

Hi,
Reported elsewhere (dare I  ;) ) http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/89153-dapol-scan-drs-class-68/#entry1551672 yesterday, Dapol had 68005 laser scanned in late July.
Quotehoping to have CAD files to show soon, with sample models in the UK around the end of the year
which is much better news that the Dapol website Product Development page which still shows the rather terse:
QuoteAwaiting Information from DRS. An ETA on this model at this moment is imposible to determine.
I'm informed this was posted back on the 3rd of June!  Anyhow, all very exciting...

Regards, Gerry  8)
