This weekend, on Saturday and Sunday (1st/2nd Feb), Mark Bellis will be
displaying his 'scale' model trains built entirely from LEGO, at
Staffordshire County Showground. I've posted previously about Mark's trains
in the NBLTC discussion group (www.brickish.org) - they are simply
outstanding in detail and size and he builds to scale drawings (approx O
gauge).

Hey Jon-- is this some fancy way of saying that Mark is an 8 wider? :-)

JOHN

Yes, 8 +, but it's more like a scale model railway than simply '8-wide'. We
really need some pictures up on the NBLTC site.

(working valve gear, synchronised secondary motors driving the 'fake'
driving wheels, electronic wurlitzer controllers....)
