Title: Cheddar Models Ltd
Post by: Eddy Matthews on June 09, 2005, 07:27:10 PM
I'm sure most of you will have heard of Cheddar Models Ltd, especially if your into model steam engines...

Someone at my local club mentioned that they had gone bankrupt - Does anyone know if this is true? There's no mention of any problems on the Cheddar Models website, so I can only hope that it's one of those unfounded rumours that raise ther ugly head from time to time...

Thanks for the update Henri - It's sad to hear that such a great company was allowed to get into such a state though. Lets hope Stuart Turner buy it and allow it to continue...
