Lyd in 16mm scale!

Just noticed this on the Accucraft site:

"Accucraft (UK), on behalf of the Ffestiniog Railway, is to offer a strictly limited edition of the new-build ‘Lyd’ in 16mm (1:19) scale. The live steam model is based on our highly successful and very popular ‘Lew’ but incorporates all the small detail differences carried by ‘Lyd’, from the painted numbers and ‘Lyd’ name plates, the subtly different livery details and the unique Boston Lodge builder’s plates. The model represents ‘Lyd’ equipped with her Lynton & Barnstaple cab profile set to the L & B loading gauge. It is being produced exclusively for the Ffestiniog Railway by Accucraft (UK) and will only be available through the Ffestiniog shop or direct from Accucraft (UK). The retail profit from every model sold will go towards the final construction phase of the prototype loco and to keep her in traffic. There will be two versions in a strictly limited batch of 100 models, lined Southern green and fully lined British Railways black, each with its own numbered certificate of authenticity."

There's more here - nice way of thanking the FR for their help in producing 'Lew' in 16mm scale. Is Paul Lewin threatening to oil round the model? ​

:whistle:
