KR Models made their own bed to lie in. There was no smoke without fire. Yes some people are willing to buy a model for a very high cost that no one else is building, but they were building very niche products at a high price with poor quality and people vote with their feet (or wallets) and...
I love the FNL. The journey through the Flow Country is underrated massively.
How could it be improved? Have a bar car inserted on the train selling beer and snacks.
Anything improving the services timings i think is too much to cash to compete with the bus and the car.

We are aware of an issue with emails from the Forum to Microsoft-based email accounts (hotmail/outlook/live.com email addresses). This is being looked into currently, thanks for your patience meanwhile.
