Ian Holmes Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Found this page on the internet recently http://www.wodfriends.org/autorailers.html The one that fascinates me is about halfway down the page. The 235hp 0-6-0DS of the US Army so far I've not been able to find any other information than that on this page perhaps I'll have a go. at Scratch building it. There's enough information I think. ian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
engage Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Hi Ian I thought I would help get your thread off the ground ,so to speak. Looks like your choice of model could be quite interesting to make and there won't be too many others around to see. I think you should manage with the details given on the above link and what you can't see you should be able to guess. I wish you good luck with the project but you haven't mentioned the proposed scale ! Cheers John Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonB Posted March 16, 2012 Share Posted March 16, 2012 Not quite Ro-Rail but a similar idea is at http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/26126-statfold-barn-land-rover-in-oo9/ Searching for Statfold on RMweb will turn up a couple of photos of the original. Networkrail have ro-rail mobile cranes, one used to park adjacent to a local level crossing, but haven't seen it for a few months now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Holmes Posted March 19, 2012 Author Share Posted March 19, 2012 Scale? Not entirely sure at the moment. I do have a hankering for O scale. This would have to be American O scale then... Ian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
engage Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Cor blimey Ian! it will be an enormous beast, well at least to what I am used to . I suppose that you do realize that with at least two members offering words of encouragement and who knows how many lookers on that you have now more or less committed yourself We now know the proposed scale so I think to be fair to us a bit more information should be forth-coming and if we want to come any- where in the competition we will as time goes on need some pics.
