Yes, what actually happened at Longtown – Sir Gilbert's long awaited, accurate report of the events – largely in photos.

Great stuff. Thanks for showing this, very inspirational.

Where did you get the busses??!! I have been looking for a long time with no luck. They fit in well with 28mm.

I just ordered the Ironclad miners which seem to be the troops in first picture. I will use yours as a model :)

Clever use of Victorian steam tank types. I have a bunch but had not thought of using them, but fit nicely.

@bobgnar They are the Ironclad miners. Not mine by the way – can't claim any kudos for them. grin Similarly the buses.
