Hi Was messing about on the computer earlier on and came across this site http://www.modelrailwaybuildings.com Seems to have a reasonable choice, cheap prices and also some freebies (appeals to a yorkshireman). Thought it may be of interest to others |

Great potential here, dtose, and many thanks for this link. I've only had a chance to glance at some of the models available, and although they don't match the graphic detail of (say) Scalescenes, or the Evans Model Builder, this would be a very useful resource for middle-distance buildings and background/low relief. I'm going to download a freebie and see how it turns out

I have downloaded a couple of N gauge items and they look really good for so little money. The two freebies I have can be repeated as many times as you like of course once you have the original.

Are they a 3D kit guys or just the front face? The pictures on the website are a bit vague.

They are 3D kits, Marty. I take back what I said. I've just downloaded the (free) HO stable block, and although I'm only looking at it on screen, the printed detail is equal to the Model Builder program that I have. (Actually, I wonder if they .... No, surely not  )Great little kit. I'm going to make a card model on the first snowy day and find a place for it on the OCR! ____________________ Tim.

No thanks Tim. I didn't realise I had downloaded the N gauge model until it was on my desktop and I had a look at it. It will be interesting to see how your model turns out. As you say the detail is excellent. Another one for the Equipment & Materials Index undoubtably.

Thanks DTose, a very interesting site and it's good to give Scalescenes a little competition. Les ____________________ Devon Junction Kernow Junction |

What's a "proper"version of WinZip, Ron - I thought it came preloaded on most computers. ____________________ Tim. Ex-pat, retired cleric, artist, amongst other things. |

Tim, that is an evaluation version & thus is limited in what it can do. Similar to the Adobe Acrobat reader one can get for free- it reads but cannot create & modify. That said, printers nowdays can scan files & save them in various formats such as PDF. | |||||||||
