Certainly some very interesting thoughts from you all, and I understand the different viewpoints. What I want is reliable models at a reasonable price. I'm not saying dirt cheap, I'm saying reasonable.

I don't buy a huge amount of locos at the moment because my family say it's a huge outlay for such a small item, and they cannot see the value in it. My wife moaned at me yesterday because there was so much stock in the Hornby shop yet nothing I would buy because it was all too big... I can't win...

Still, I'm sticking to N gauge for all its benefits, and know it's worth it.

Cheers, Timmo

I did enquire on the Hornby stand at Warley while I was admiring the HA (Class 71) electric and the Adams Radial models (and wishing they were smaller) regarding further British outline 'N' gauge releases, and the chap I spoke to (IIRC was on the design team) said that there was nothing on the slate at the moment, but never say never - it was up to the appropriate subsidiary (eg Arnold), but they hadn't said they weren't going to do any more.
