    Well, I have decided to build an 0-16.5 (7mm) layout of Lynton. I'm only 22, and it is my first ever solo modeling project, nevertheless I intend it to be absolutely stunning and help raise awareness, support and funds for the L&B when it is exhibited places.

    Anywho, if anyone knows of kits, espeically loco kits which seem hard to come by, or anything on the second hand market then please feel free to let me know!

    Also, I really need a scale drawing of the buildings at Lynton and any photographs people might be able to point me in the direction of?

    Cheers

    Buy a copy of the L&B Books from the L&B website and there are drawings, track plans and pictures that will be of great benefit. I am looking at The Lynton and Branstaple Railway by Brown, Prideaux and Radcliffe and all the information is there.
