Hi Nick
Got ya small problem thats the one I cannot get to print out correctly it allways prints to big no mater what I try[:(]
If you look in the how to page there are dimentions I will have a look at his instructions and see if i can sort out how his drawing works dosn't follow the format I am used to.
I do however have a Ravenglass and Exdale 1st class coach and a Ravenglass and Exdale 2nd class coach these are meant to run on 45mm gauge the 1st class coach is a fairly standard 3 compartment 4 wheel coach
the second is a bit odd in that both sides are different but it obviously goes with the first are they of any interest?/
regards John
