Model Railway Forum

A couple of corrections. I have just been on the various websites of the above MRCs Clayton is not a triangular station but it looks like Shipley MRC still do not have new club rooms. As for Keighley MRC no mention of the Shipley layout and as I recall it was unfinished with only a couple of members ...

That’s quite an undertaking. Triangular stations are quite difficult to model with tracks disappearing off in three directions and depending on what you plan to do with those three tracks can result in quite a lot of real estate required.

Thanks for your reply. I've checked eBay but nothing. I found recently that the copper wheel that picks up from the track on the earlier cars came in 2 different sizes and I'm not sure which cars take which size as both seem to fit (and like most Minic, neither really work that well...)
