As far as I know its not. Used to be Phil Vincent, formerly Henrics, then Nottingham Minor Centre. Presumably the mould is out there somewhere and I've heard talks of someone else making a new mould and producing them. You can get steel repair sections for your guttering and roof edge though so all is not lost at the moment.

Hi,
you're welcome to pop in, the kettle is always on. Partway through an engine swap on a '35 Terraplane, and theres another Railton enthusiast on site with ongoing projects so should be plenty of interest. One or two Minors about too!
