LNWR Watford Tank in BR Days

[luis18artist]

Hello everyone

Im planing to build from scratch a LNWR 0-6-2 Watford Tank deisgned by Francis Webb around 1898 they are also known as Cauliflower Tanks because were designed as a Tank Engine version of the LNWR Cauliflower Class 0-6-0

 

My plan its to create a layout of LNWR engines during the BR Days

Anyone could help me find some information about the Watford Tanks during British Railways

The only thing i know its that 15 of them made it into BR Days

 

Somebody could help me find some information about them ?

BR Database has some details of allocations and dates of withdrawal.

 

Hope this helps.

What scale are you planning to build in? There are kits available for the Watford Tank in 4mm and 7mm scales. The LNWR is fairly well represented for loco kits in both those scales, including the types that lasted into early BR days

 

If you wish to scratchbuild then I suggest that you contact the LNWR Society or the NRM at York for drawings, etc.

Me too. Just getting a man shed.  Want a model of Market Bosworth LNWR on the proposed branch from Atherstine to Desford when trying to buy the Leicester and Swannington Railway before the Midland got it. Deposited plans in Leicestershire Record Office. Make a nice LNWR Cross Country line.  Early BR days.
