One drawback is that railways are a little sparse in Spain, there is a high speed line being built South to Mercia but work on it seems to have slowed down and the opening date has been put back. It is about 15 miles away from home, Alicante being the nearest place for any photos.

Hi Tony. I agree, the Ian Allan bookshop is a sad loss. They even stocked a reasonable number of Swiss/Austrian/German books and videos to satisfy my interests and their model railway section wasn't bad either.
I know how you feel about the lack of railways in your part of Spain but I can't feel sorry for you. I'm nearly 1000 kms from the trains that I love but have to put up with the dull damp Cheshire weather.
