Phil Parker - Modelmaker

Model railway locomotives, rolling stock and even a few figures built to order. All are best described as "layout locomotives" - they look fine on a model railway and will work well. I can't claim to create glass case examples, but then these are usually too precious to use and cost a lot more !
