Graham,
There is a Harris Edge Boadicea Steam Engine paper model
on Ebay. Type in paper model in the search window and select
toys & hobbies category. This one is similar or could possibly
be the model shown at the convention show....Ron

They are the same model. It is one of the SHOWCASE Models. I have this one in the original box in my collection. It is pretty nice although some of the black is faded or not evenly printed. The rest of the colours are very bright with overall good registration. It is an older model so lacks in detail but as you can see from the previously posted picture it results in a very nice build. It is hand drawn and requires careful attention to fit when building. The instructions are very good for the time period.

BTW - The same seller has the SHOWCASE Flying Scotsman Locomotive in the original box for sale as well.

Thanks for that Ron, Bill & B-Manic...but aaaaah! They only ship within the States and it's closed. Looks really good though.
Cheers, Graham

Graham, if a steam roller is of interest, I see Billy posted this photo he shot at the recent Euro Scale Modeling 2010 convention.

It's from Ben Elfring, a Dutch designer, it's the man you see in the background of the picture, he makes very nice designs, a bit in FiddlersGreen style, I don't think he sells downloadable stuff, but he has a website in Dutch were you can order printed copies, if you have trouble with that I can help
