I'm modeling a Ransomes and Rapier 20 HP .

 

I'm looking of  photos with details on the rear /driving part of the real models. I have already find 3/4 photo on the website but they lack of details. If you have it, I will appreciate it. I want to reproduce all the details for my models at 1/13.3 or 7/8 th scale.

NIce model. I've dug the attached views of RR84 at Apedale. It's had a few modifications in industry (like a new engine and gearbox!) but the rear section and the forward/reverse box is as original. There is a large handle on the right hand side (looking forward) which is used to reverse the loco. Let me know if you need any more, I see the loco every weekend!

 

Regards,

Thank you Simon for the photos.  Your model has been heavily modified.

 

I have nearly finish the ransomes. The plate name was done by Ferdinand Mels. I need now to add and test the decoder and paint the beast.

 

I want to thanks all the persons that send me photos and information.

 

Bob McKenzie seems to appreciate this new loco and drink a beer on the seat in order to see if the locomotive is confortable !

 

This kit was well done except for the chassie. I had just to modifie few things according the real photos and even if there is again one mistake I will leave it.
