James Hilton Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 (edited) Hunslet Jenbach kit in 09 Multi-media kit including 3D printed core, etched nickel silver details designed to fit the Kato N gauge tram chassis... CAPTION: The 3D print (left) etch (front) and Kato chassis (back right) with the 1:76 scale version centre. The Hunslet Jenbach kit is now available through the Narrow Planet Marketplace in the more senior minimum gauge scale of 09. This is a 'scale up' of the 6point5 1:76 scale kit, and fits the Kato 11-103 or new 11-109 chassis. These Hunslet (Jenbach) diesel shunters, built in 1994 by Hunslet in Leeds to a Jenbach design (Type DH25) were fitted with a Kubota diesel engine and weigh 2.7 tonnes. They were originally used on the Jubilee line extension in 1996/7 as 2ft gauge locomotives and have since ended up on a few miniature railways in the UK, rebuilt in different guises. There is one at Eaton Hall (15inch), one at Fairbourne (12inch) one at Perrygrove (15inch) and a pair at Hampton and Kemsley (2ft). This kit represents the rebuilt 'Jubilee' from the wonderful Perrygrove railway, an idyllic spot worth visiting in the Forest of Dean.
