Hi, speaking about 4-4-0+0-4-4 Garratts, what about this design? http://beyergarrattlocos.co.uk/bgpix/egypt.jpg A pair of Hornby LMS compounds put together under a suited boiler.... The Signal Box Cat

Hi, Winter 1991/92, Phil Atkins wrote in Railways South East on page 18: “During last 18 months of Maunsell's tenure Percy Bollen produced alternative designs for electric locomotives in Bo-Bo, 1-Bo Bo-1, 1A-Bo-A1 and Bo-Bo-Bo configurations”. Did anybody ever see at least one of these diagrams? Maybe some technical data? Regards, The Signal Box Cat

Tyneside 1937 3rd Rail Electric Stock - Skinley Drawings
Signal Box Cat replied to North Eastern's topic in 7mm+ modelling
Hi Paul, sorry for delay. No, I am not modelling those motor cars, I am just an "electric" fan. I admit they are fascinating indeed. My modelling activities concern 00 scale AC locomotives of the BR era at the moment especially free-lance models. The Signal Box Cat -
Hi, Fascinating! Is there anywere a diagram of the Hughes Pacific available? Same question concerning the GCR 2-10-0. As far as I am informed the GCR considered some 2-10-2 projects. Thank you, The Signal Box Cat

Hi Nick! I admit, I am not an expert in locating subjects online. You´re right, I´ll contact the NER Association. A good idea indeed, thank you! The Signal Box cat -

Hi All, the same question as above - photographs & diagrams - concerning the following NER electric stock. Thanks. The Signal Box Car -
Neil, yes, I think these stripes should suit my locomotive quite well. Thank you! The Signal Box Cat

Hi all, E2001 prototype again. Silver Fox didn´t answer my questions but I found some of his kits on ebay, E2001 as well. The locomotive is approaching its final detailing but there is one problem, the 1/16" white stripe along its body. Can anybody recommend a shop, manufacture, etc for this item? Thanks, The Signal Box cat

Hi, the Bavarian 0-4-0T had NO inside connecting rods and NO oposing pistons! There was a single piston moving inside the cylinder but its rod was connected at each end to the drivers via coupling rods. That´s all. Another topic, another Beyer Peacock projects: Proposed Garratt engines, Cork Bandon and S Coast Rlwy, Dec 1910 Proposed passenger Garratt engine, JP Hearne & Co, London, Jan 1911 Proposed Garratt Engine, Great Central Rly, Nov 1912 Can anybody help? Cheers, The Signal Box Cat

Hi, by the way, speaking about 2-10-2s (compounds) did anybody hear anything about a "proposed 2-10-2 banking engine for Worsboro (Worsbrough)"? Tank or tender, who knows but not a compound? Cheers, The Signal Box Cat

A little something I'd like to try to make someday, the English electric built L class overhead electric locos for Australia. But just assuming that BR ordered some, modified to fit our loading gauge using Deltic bodywork.... Hi Simon, you may find a RTR item of this girl here unfortunately H0 scale, http://www.auscisionmodels.com.au/L Class Locomotive.htm For might have beens using a Deltic body try a look into Back Track 2014, "In place of steam: the development of alternatives. p. 247-51" vol. 4 (April) by Norman Lowe. You may find there a proposal for Class CC4 as intended for the Southern. The Signal Box Cat

Hi, can anybody suggest a manufacturer of BR pantographs (kits?) in 00 scale as used with no E2001? Bachmann answered they do not supply such items as a single piece but only fitted to a locomotive body. The Signal Box Cat
