NEWS April 22nd 2014
Pete has decided to concentrate on the railway side of Border Miniatures as Railway and Military are really 2 separate businesses.
So he's closing the Military side of Border Miniatures today. They will no longer be available

Says he's got some small stocks left

And for you casting types

Very sad to see it go. Border Miniatures produced some impeccably researched pieces particularly thase by Pete himself and in collaboration with Keith Durham.
I'm delighted to say I've managed to get both the Mounted Border Reiver and the Foot Loon compavion piece.

Just sold some of these on ebay. Wondered why the bidding got a bit heated.
