Killybegs, County Donegal Railway
p.42
10mm
After regularly visiting County Donegal, Chris Romain developed a curiousity about the old station at Killybegs and this inspired him to build this fine portrayal of a rarely modelled line. Entirely scratchbuilt in 10mm scale by Chris, often from his own artwork, it is a delight to see and present to you in MRJ.

A Simple Conversion
p.50
4mm
With its full and detailed instructions, the Brassmasters Easichas is designed to make the task of converting a RTR model to, in this case EM gauge, very simple. It offers a number of options, from a basic version that re-uses parts of the RTR Bachmann C Class, to a more sophisticated fully etched chassis.
Neither, as Geoff Haynes has found out, is particularly difficult to build with this well-designed product.

Bespoke Printing
p.75
Rarely do we see such a delicate and finely detailed model as this. By using Digital modelling Lawrence Boul describes how he has the freedom to alter his artwork to create a host of variations and make a bespoke model that can then be 3D printed.
He described the process in MRJ 262, but makes full use of its possibilities here to produce a kit of parts that can be printed to any scale (in this instance S scale) and with a host of different features.
