Jackson Screw Link Couplings

[Regularity]

Recent discussions on couplings reminded me that the old Jackson-Evans screw link couplings tend to drag along the ballast in 4mm scale, but are perfectly suitable for S, even if still slightly long - as indeed are many “4mm scale” items of that era. (ERG buffers, for example.)

 

Unlike the Romford screw link couplings, there was some play in the Jackson-Evans couplings, and they did not require disassembling, adjusting and reassembly.

 

If anyone has any spare, could they please PM me and we can arrange an exchange of couplings for beer tokens/pictures of Winston Churchill, etc.

 

Even better, if anyone has any of the “Britrail” lost wax castings, could they let me know? They really were spot on for S, but unfortunately I have only ever seen one pair.
