I've one of the knock off MTK copies that sent both businesses bust.
Ordsall Road (BR(E)), Forge Mill Sidings (BR(M)), Kirkcliffe Coking Plant (BR(E)), Swanage (BR (S)) and Heaby (LMS/MR). Acquired Thorneywood (GNR). Still trying to "Keep the Balance".

It's a beautiful kit, usable for many places, not just the Midland (presumably a contractor's 'standard' product, although they all seem to be slightly different).

I have bashed three of them into the long-span footbridge for Balcombe - OK I only needed two of them for the extra straight span section, but it was worth it; recent plastic and laser cut products are very good, but nothing looks quite like a brass one.

Lochgorm Kits do a rather nice one too http://www.lochgormkits.co.uk/html/hli_ ... html#HRI10. I have one on Portchullin.

Lochgorm are not presently trading, due to the death of the proprietor but I happen to know they will be back so keep a eye open for an annoucement!



PS, presume the announcement is circa the Perth show in June.

Yes, I've got my eye on that..... :mrgreen:
That would be an ecumenical matter.
