He's gone quiet of late though... I'm sure that was on his list after the EPB's, I wonder if he'll ever go back to his 73, I remember seeing a very early beta of that model prior to abandonment.
I would love to see a rake of loco hauled MK1's done by IJ.

Hi All
I have been busy with a few projects just lately and here are some class 74s which are almost ready for upload, they
just need the eng files sorting out and packaging before being uploaded in the next day or two.
There will be a few more uploads during December and then it will be a bit quite from me for a while, next up will be some EPBs in Blue/Grey and NSE.
One day Steve I will get around to doing the 73, the 74 has only taken 6 years since the version 1 model disappeared!!!
Cheers
Ian J

WOW........ absolutely superb ........Ian's models are in a class of their own.
I'm sure his models will last longer than the real ones too.

Ian,
Looking brilliant - I think I might demolish the Eurostar station at Waterloo and re-create the stabling point for them!!
