RMweb Premium Dava Posted December 26, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 26, 2013 Dragon Models were keen on a Peckett saddle tank too,but hinted that it was not to be the next model.... Maybe an Andrew Barclay 10" 0-4-0ST which would be handy for distillery, dock & mining layouts? Dava Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
81A Oldoak Posted December 26, 2013 Author Share Posted December 26, 2013 Beattie Wells tank had a good innings, nudge, nudge. Definitely not after the debacle some other players have had with this loco. Dragon Models were keen on a Peckett saddle tank too,but hinted that it was not to be the next model.... Maybe an Andrew Barclay 10" 0-4-0ST which would be handy for distillery, dock & mining layouts? Dava I've never particularly liked Barclay's locos.

Simond Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Churchward was a clever bloke - standard bits on the real thing = standard bits in models = more models from the same tooling... You just know it makes sense! SD Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warspite Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 A Peckett saddletank would be good ....... ........ or perhaps, an RSH '56 class' - specifically designed for ironstone work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Night Train Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 I liked the idea of a short wheelbase GWR Railmotor. Or an 1100 dock tank. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CME and Bottlewasher Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 A BR class 03 diesel shunter for me please! Hi, DJH do a very nice, easy-to-build/starter kit and of course a RTR version too, IMHO, duplication of this model would be pointless for all concerned as the DJH model is very good indeed. Hope that helps. Kindest, CME Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poggy1165 Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Please, something relatively small. Unless one owns a stately home or runs trains around the garden, the larger engines are of little practical use. (Well, I suppose a loco shed layout is one possible use - the wonderful Cardiff Canton has shown it can be done in a remarkably small space.) Some small, undistinguished engine, preferably one that can be turned out in pre-group, group and BR versions. Or alternatively, some reasonably ancient and long-lived industrial type. And something that isn't a duplicate of an already available or promised model. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Poggy, I agree, the more generic and ubiqitous the better for all though - manufacturers, retailes and punters alike as it has to make money. OK so why not this one?

Poggy1165 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Ah, Bellerophon! Now that would tempt me badly. I could see the local colliery acquiring running rights over the main line. (There were precedents.) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Dava Posted December 29, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 29, 2013 I really don't know if I can stand the suspense & speculation until Chris is able to advise the next Ixion loco! Let's just remember that within the last two years they've delivered two excellent & very useful small locos, which are still available, on time & on cost, whilst remaining very responsive on this forum. A marked difference on all these counts from other suppliers we know of. Now back to my 'P' class rebuild. Dava Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Now back to my 'P' class rebuild. I could do with a good 'P' ... and plenty of livery options too On the industrial theme, how about something by Aveling & Porter? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
marsa69 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 A 1926 Peckett 0-4-0ST like this one would be very nice Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinecreekrr Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 I would certainly be very likely to purchase a 264 Class Caledonian 0-4-0ST much like the Neilson 0-4-0T. See the link below : http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/63/LMS_CR_0-4-0ST_56039_Whiteinch_1.9.58_edited-2.jpg Small loco which can be produced in CR, LMS, and BR logos. Something new for Oscale RTR that also opens a market for some rolling stock from up north to go with it. Bruce Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce And with a very simple change of tank from round to ogee (e.g. Great Eastern Nielsons) a fair few variations could be made from the basic design!

puddlejumper Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 Bit of an esoteric one this but may be easy to do I think the chassis from the fowler could be turned around and a different body could be put on ie Armstrong Whitworths Lady Armstrong as used on the North Sunderland Railway. Dont know how many where made but would be a great compliment to the fowler and the original is up at Tanfield Railway Just a thought and no expensive chassis design to do???
