Matti8 Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 (edited) I thought that I would make this post at a later date but as I saw someone was interested in one the other day I figured that I might as well do it now. There is a severe lack of resources for modelling Scottish railways. Especially the Sou-west. Perhaps it's time to change that. I have been thinking recently about the idea of producing a few models and the Drummond 403 in particular stood out to me. After reading about the interchangeability of parts with Peter's earlier 279 class I have concluded that it would be beneficial to have both available. The kits would be produced in either resin, plastic, or a combination of the two. Ready to take a gearbox and wheels of your choice. Now at this stage I would like to ask you all to please express any interest in this project! If there is sufficient demand I will make it happen.

Michael Hodgson Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 Doubt if I could justify one, but it's a good choice of prototype. Attractive loco, simple side rods, no nasty valve gear to fight with. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
