HORNBY POST
Tony Newton followed prototype signalling
practice for his Derbyshire set ‘OO’ gauge
analogue controlled layout and took things a step
further utilising computer software to control all
movements.
CHESTERFIELD GC
Evan Green-Hughes discovers why Dugald
Drummond’s rugged ‘700’ class 0-6-0 locomotives
were so highly regarded despite being designed
for goods work.
REALITY CHECK
Greenock and District Model Railway Club set
out to model something a little different with
their ‘OO’ gauge Scottish Region layout - gravity
shunting, which they have managed to achieve
with remarkable authenticity.

RAILWAY REALISM
‘700’ 0-6-0 and all-steel K-Type Pullman cars for ‘OO’. Plus Bachmann’s
newly-tooled ‘OO’ gauge Class 43 ‘Warship’ and ‘N’ gauge Southern
Railway ‘Bogie B’ luggage van are reviewed in full together with colourful
reissues of Hornby’s Class 31, Class 56, Oxford Diecasts latest road
vehicles, Presier figures and much more.
There have been many forms of railway traction
over the years. Some were practical but others
were rather more esoteric, as Evan Green-Hughes
explains.
