RMweb Gold The Johnster Posted August 30, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 30, 2020 Can't find any evidence of A26 autocoach running in South Wales, which may be just as well as £75 might be a stretch for a while, at least until Mr Wallet has recovered from the upcoming shock of the Baccy 94xx...

A model that I have always dismissed as 'before' BR(S) but if the logic contained in this thread could justify an A12, then, we're in business.

I direct to the Warren Shephard sire but found no obvious details. thanks Oakhill Warren is in a Facebook group called GWR modellers. He posted about the 7mm scale 15xx he is releasing and was asked if he would be prepared to do it in 4mm scale. He indicated he would if there orders for 25 kits (I think) Suffice to say that there was enough interest. If you email him there might be some available - I am not sure. Delivery is imminent. Although well outside my era of interest I like the look of the 15xx and wanted to support someone prepared to do this sort f thing. That is my excuse anyway. Next up looks like it will be his W12 cattle wagon reduced to 4mm scale. There are good and bad groups on Facebook, but I like the attitudes in the GWR modellers group.

hayfield Posted September 11, 2020 Share Posted September 11, 2020 I think this was an early style of etched mainframes i-one step up from the brass bar type, came with etched NS coupling rods The next step up would be the Alan Gibson milled brass mainframes, these can be ordered with either axle holes or hornblock slots. I guess the cost of design and production of an etched brass chassis may at the moment be a bit expensive Nice to know the quality of the castings are up to Southeastern Finecast's usual standards. I have been thinking about buying one of these but the simple chassis is putting me off Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
