Very nice wheels James and McPherson's is coming along nicely. I expect you're going to have another winning kit there...

Some great looking stuff. The building kit is most enticing. If one were so inclined, how would one get their grubby mitts on these products, and at what cost?

Thanks all for your comments.

Marc, the wheels will be available through my website as of today. Price is £2.95 for 2 axles with brass bearings.

I still need to write instructions for McPherson's Garage and am going to re-mould some of the parts that don't come out as well as I like but should be available before the end of this month. Price will be approx £95.00 I think.

If you are happy for me to do so I'll post a few more pics here so you can see what you'd be getting.

Great stuff James, didnt realize you were producing 1/32 kits, but knew about the art work. Any more photos of the rolling stock and locos?

Just stumbling across this project... love the look of the garage in total - but the book shelf has me drooling.  What a great looking casting - and a great idea.  Beautiful execution.

Hi Guys,

just a quick update on McPherson's Garage...

finally got finished with printed sheets and getting the sample done- a few quick photographs to show where I'm up to.

Just need to finish instructions and she's done.

I should add my thanks to Stuart (known as Barney here) for sending me his photo's that inspired this project.

Brilliant!  Lovely scene and execution. Nice finish work on the bricks and pumps. I wish you much success with this.

I do have to say, that I wish this was 1/35 :-\

I could see this being put to great use as a dio background for a WW2 scene on the "homefront" in the UK, by some of the armor modelers/dioramists (Spencer Pollard comes to mind).


BTW...any chance you will be selling the pump castings/kits as a seperate item?

Really nice! The exposed gas pump is a great detail.

That drain cover and the open gas pump are really nice touches James.

Good luck with it.
Kind Regards
