Another true gentleman of the model railway world, Mike Darby who runs the Chuffed 2 Bits website.

David at DLK supplies superb resin cast buildings and linside accessories. All of the slate walls around my line came from DLK.

The Garden Railway Forum is a great place for inspiration and the exchange of ideas.

GRS are a very useful supplier of parts and also often have some interesting second-hand items.

David at HGLW produces an excellent range of laser cut MDF kits. I have built a couple of his summer coaches and
my diesel shunter is based on his battery chassis.

Great source of lasercut plywood rolling stock kits. Most of my coaches and the metal fittings for my scratch built freight
