(examples, see here: One Two ) The coaches are now at the Lakeside Miniature Railway at Southport and the bits of loco chassis re-used. But I have just seen photos of a GN15 model here: Smallbrook Studios And this got me thinking. Has anyone thought to build some Emett stock in 7.25" gauge or 10.25"? Would make an interesting and unique project... anyone up for it?
