rob D2 Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Yes thank you what about class 37 x 2 need refuel before go south to Cornwall? I would think so, I don't think they could go both the way up and back on one tank Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GordonC Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 look for photos of them at nearby depots ... maybe Ayr or Motherwell perhaps. Dont think Carlisle Kingmoor would have been open or had a fuelling point at that time 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

class37418stag Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Hello everyone Anyone been brought Bachmann class 37672 and running on their layout Because I am not sure to buy or not to class 37672 model Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne 37901 Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Yes I've got one, it's a nice model apart from the grille issue. If it wasn't for that I would backdate and repaint mine in red stripe livery but hey ho. Cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob D2 Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 Just to confirm then ....the model has the cantrail bars but no bars on either end noses ? Wondering if that would make it suitable for 670 renumber as it appears to Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne 37901 Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 (edited) Just to confirm then ....the model has the cantrail bars but no bars on either end noses ? Wondering if that would make it suitable for 670 renumber as it appears to Hi Rob, Yes correct, it would only be suitable for 670 if the headboard clips were removed and then only in RFD, Transrail or EWS liveries as this loco had bars on opposite grilles and headboard clips only when in Railfreight livery which is how I've modelled it.

rob D2 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Thanks Wayne, Expensive way forward but may be an option? Of the st blazey 37s there are not many body options from Bachmann that match well in refurbished versions Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne 37901 Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Thanks Wayne, Expensive way forward but may be an option? Of the st blazey 37s there are not many body options from Bachmann that match well in refurbished versions It depends what livery you wanted to do it but yes. 37672 has the wrong grilles for most of the St Blazey 37s, what we really need is for Bachmann to do another run of locos with the 672 body that they did in Transrail livery. If they did that for the Kernow model then it would be correct and also useful for many other 37s. It depends how accurate you want to be, with my 37s I try to be as accurate as possible while trying to keep the fleet consistent and this applies to other loco classes. Sorry I cant help more but I think you'll find it difficult to model 37670 without some work at least. I did quite a bit on mine as it started out as a Kernow model of the same loco in EWS livery. All the best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob D2 Posted January 30, 2017 Share Posted January 30, 2017 Yeah I agree, A refurbished one without cantrail supports and no dividers on the nose grilles would be nice. I'm not too bothered about 100 % accuracy , but having said that I've just scraped off the roof vents to move them on a 37/6 to /5 ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
