I have been in contact with British Fine Scale over the last few weeks and I know one of our members is building an EM prototype version

One of the topics I have discussed is the difference between SMP rail and our own rail.
I am also talking to them about stocking these kits for sale to members.
My own view is that it is a welcome addition to the EM scale and will hopefully encourage other modellers to move to
EM with a potential number of them joining the society. How it will impact sale of our RTR offerings is open to question but rather than ignore this we should embrace it. I believe there will still be a market for RTR points it just a matter how big. Only time will tell.

3D printing is already changing some aspects of our hobby and I guess this is the next step.

This is good news that the society may be stocking the new kits and especially if they will be using EMGS rail, it does look like an exciting development all round.
