5050 Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 From talking with Dave on the South East Finecast stand at Railex last week I understand that he is very close to being able to re-introduce the kit for this loco. The original masters are still OK but he has made new moulds for them and probably done a bit of fettling to improve them a bit. Not sure if there will be an etched chassis as per the 16XX but in all probability there will be. Hope this is of interest to all those who have had this loco on their wish lists!

RMweb Gold Captain Kernow Posted June 6, 2016 RMweb Gold Share Posted June 6, 2016 The etched chassis kit for the 16XX that you refer to is the one by Branchlines, isn't it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Siberian Snooper Posted June 6, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted June 6, 2016 The new High Level 64xx chassis has the correct wheelbase, but needs shortening at the bunker end by around 4mm. I have one in stock on the todo list and will be next up after completing a couple of 850s. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
5050 Posted June 7, 2016 Author Share Posted June 7, 2016 The etched chassis kit for the 16XX that you refer to is the one by Branchlines, isn't it? Yes. Them and South East Finecast seem to be well involved with each other these days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenway Park Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 Any news on the 16XX? The 2021 will be just as useful for earlier FOD layouts Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon A Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 The 16xx kits are available from Branchlines and Southeastern Finecast. Also if you already have a body a recently released etched chassis kit is available. I was hoping to start mine as a thread on RMW but Millie my 1959 Land Rover is taking up most of my free time at the moment. Gordon A Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jetmorgan Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 Not wishing to push this off topic but do you know if SE Finecast will be/are revising their bodyline kits to fit more modern chassis and also doing new subjects for us more novice and very tight budget modellers???
