RED FRED - The Genesis of BVT
The BVT could have very easily become the "Esk Valley Industrial Railway" operating little english 0-4-0's and feeling slightly out of place... but for Fred. From the moment Peter Nixon first saw the full size quaint and rattlely railmotor he knew it was what he wanted to build. Hundreds said it couldn't be done, still more said it would look horrid, and more still said that it was impossible as a first time build. But this just egged Peter on to create the award wining model.... which then needed an award winning track...
