Good point. I was really thinking more modern image.


I did see a Czech-made resin HO diesel body at a model railway show in Sutton (Surrey) earlier this year, which was a vaguely class-20 like Czech design used by IRR among many other railways.


Does anyone know who the manufacturer might have been, and where/if they might be available? I think the stall was being run by a Russian railway society. At the time I decided I didn't want to spend GBP16 on it, but they had a few Czech loco designs, and some of them might be interesting.
