    I see Rampart have gone bust. Not sure if they are in administration or have already been wound up.
    Very sorry to hear this as they had done some superb work on the Brighton Belle coaches.

    I believe they've already restarted under a different name though.

    Believe they are doing all the work for the Brighton Belle Project at Barrow Hill.
    No update from brit70000 so presume "news about Rampart's demise may be premature"! There's no mention on the Brighton Belle site.

    Rumour is they were let down by a couple of big players not paying up on time.

    I heard that too from a very reliable source, I can think of at least one that springs to mind immediately.
