Saturday Film Club: Gazelle
Another facinating Anthony Dawson film about a well-known, tiny, standard gauge loco.
Time to head off to a forum to demand a RTR model! (Seriously though, has there ever been a kit produced. It would be lovely in 7mm scale)
Trouble with this sort of model is that by the time you've invented a chassis, and then butchered the body to make it fit, you might as well scratchbuild. And that's before you take into account smoothing the surface.
