Midland/LMS 2F 0-6-0

Hi guys.

Long time no write cause I can't remember passwords!

However back to point in mind.

I'm a long time Midland/LMS fann having been brought up with a father who served 49 years and six months on the LMS/Midland region region of BR from Camden & Willesden.

Trying to keep up his passion (I had a model railway from 4!), and having developed the passion I have models of 1,3,4,and 5 (Back 5) F.

whilst not an offianado is there a model/kit of a 2F (I can remember being on the footplate with him on one being borrowed from Cricklewood)?

What about a body kit for Bachmann 3F?

Sorry to seem dumb,but a bit dim on techy stuff.

Reards,

Dez(Dizzy)Rice

Ks did a 2F kit years ago. I've built a couple of them, & I think I have one in my 'roundtuit' box...

I built a K's kit too, back in the 80's, and I think you'll find that no 2F body kit would fit onto a chassis made for a 3F because the boiler is rather low and there just isn't the room for a motor. If I remember correctly I put the motor in the tender driving the loco via a carden shaft, as Dapol do with their N gauge steam locos.
