I wonder if anyone has any ideas on this, Im looking  for a kit or even just advice on how to create the 1897 directors saloon as seen in the 1970 railway children film ? pictured below...HELP !!!

The nearest commercial offerings are probably the Langley NE/LNER clerestory (http://www.langley-models.co.uk/acatalog/Online_Catalogue_Coach_kits__rolling_stock__76.html) or the PC models clerestory that Etched Pixels do (http://www.ultima-models.co.uk/catalogue/lms-midland.html) ... but you'd have to do surgery on both.

Might also be worth checking with Worsley Works to see if either they've got anything in N or in another scale that they could do in N.

Whoa, Artie! A very specialised call!

Good luck with it mate, and let's see the results!  :thumbsup:

OK so ive dug a little deeper and the coach pictured isn't the one I should be attempting to copy for my layout !!
Coach 21661 is the actual one and I shall attempt to load a picture, to be fair it looks slightly easier to attempt than the one I initially posted though still going to be a work in progress !!!
