Regarding the modelling question, you may be best using a bit of modeller's license in a real location. For example, Aberystwyth on the West Wales coast. The usual service is a 2-car Class 158 DMU (offered by Bachmann in the right colour scheme, or at least, they offer the livery of the last one I saw a few weeks ago!) but we've also had timber trains (the Railtrack MPVs aren't available RTR but they did send a Class 37 as backup on the first run, so you could stretch reality and use the Bachmann model with Cambrian timber wagon kits). We also get railtours, so pretty much any loco you like the look of could haul these with a rake of MK1/MK2 coaches (Bachmann offer these again). The '37 could easily be used on a railtour as well as on the timber trains. <br /> <br />A few links: <br /> <br />http://www.garethbayer.co.uk/wotw/ Wagons on the Web - useful info on freight stock. <br />http://www.cambrianmodels.co.uk/4frame.html Cambrian Models - they offer timber wagon kits. You can buy these (along with wheels, couplers, etc) from www.mainlytrains.com
