21 ton Wood a Bogie 40 Ton version would be even nicer !!

 

Which bogie version, the 40 ton ones that were built by Leeds Forge and had solebars akin to the Polls built for the WD and produced as a kit by Parkside just the fox bogies were not used on these!

 

Some were later sold to the Ashington Coal Company and two survive till the late 1980's as flats and one was converted to the toolvan!

 

see this link for the Polls, not to be confused with Parrots.

21T mineral wagon fitted or unfitted and spawning hundreds of livery variants

 

 

PS  is this the same wheelbase as the plate wagon ? 

 

No not the same chassis 21ton minerals have 12' wb and 21' 6" oh chassis rather than the 15' wb and 27' 1.5" oh!

 

Plenty of variation on the minerals.

GNR Director's Saloon. Preserved railway tie-in. Can therefore justifiably be run with the nice shiny SECR locos as well as a certain forthcoming Locomotion exclusive and a prior GNR Atlantic release.

 

As an aside, its a nice ride in said Saloon for afternoon tea!

Hmm, quite similar to my guess, this could be interesting.... ;)

How about the jackshaft driven LMS diesel Shunters, either the ones by Armstrong Whitworth or by EE? They are a lovely looking design, and make a change from the standard 350HP Jocko.
