gpplumy Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Not sure if this has been mentioned. Is daphnes cab correct? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steamport Southport Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Yes. As it was in it's earlier guise. You can't really expect them to cater for alterations made in a working life of sixty odd years. That bunker and open cab was a later change quite possibly by Pilkingtons. It also later received a none prototypical chimney when it was dumped in a playground in Skelmersdale. https://preservedbritishsteamlocomotives.com/peckett-sons-works-no-737-daphne-0-4-0st/ Could be worse.... https://www.flickr.com/photos/paulbrysn/38279737086 Jason 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I have understood correctly, Hornby are presenting Daphne as delivered to Tytherington Stone Co. in 1899; did Pilkingtons ever repaint it? I look forward to the Skelmersdale version - perhaps one for the Railroad range? Edited November 20, 2021 by Compound2632 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't seem to have any lining in 1955. https://rcts.zenfolio.com/industrial-and-light/industrial-steam/other/hA87977D6#ha87977d6 Apparently it needs a new boiler and is not seen as economical to repair.

All the best Ray Press shop and you'll see the coming soon image at the bottom of the menu. Click the image and it'll take you to the page. https://uk.Hornby.com/catalogue/coming-soon?spring=true&summer=true&autumn=true&winter=true&sort_by=8&page=1 Although at the moment it only goes Spring 22 to Winter 22/23. So anything due Winter 21/22 (such as Bear & Daphne) won't be shown on the page. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
