Welcome to the small but comfy seats,(hmm, maybe I should be blaming Simon C and Camrail too ).

I think blaming that Castens chap is always a good place to start - he has a photo of Highbury at Camrail in very basic form in the days when my hair wasn't grey!!
As to what to build, a wagon is always favourite to get you going. Having built a few lately for my c.1970ish stock box I would heartily recommend anything from the Stephen Harris range. They are fantastically designed, go together beautifully and make up into exquisite little models. If you want something slightly earlier in period then there are loads in the Association range that would be suitable but I would go for one of the Chris Higgs designed all etched kits for no other reason than they are pretty much complete. The GWR Toads are very good and I particularly like the MR kits, cattle, box and coke various.
I'll do you a deal Cookie. Get something 2mm built for LarkRail next year and I will finish the 1/32 wagon I started ........ years ago. How about it?
