rope runner Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Hi there fellow RMwebbers Could anyone advise if they know of any pictures of "Gamecock" or any other UK based 0-4-0 Cranmore class Pecketts (we are not aware of any others, but welcome being proved wrong)? So far we have only been able to locate this: http://www.irsociety.co.uk/Archives/53/GAMECOCK.jpg We're 9/10'ths of a way through construction of a 5'' model, and are wishing to paint/name in an appropriate Uk livery. There is one on the Puffing Billy railway in Australia, of which we already have many pictures. Many thanks Paul A. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ohmisterporter Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Sorry I cannot help with the info you want Paul, but I can certainly see the attraction in building a model of this little beauty. What a great scene that would make on a layout, with the loco on a trailer and the traction engine. Thanks for sharing the photo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rope runner Posted April 22, 2013 Author Share Posted April 22, 2013 Oh dear! I appear to have wrongly expressed our intentions! It's a 5 inch gauge live steam model we are constructing... Sorry for the confusion Ohmisterporter. Here is an example of the model (not ours) - it's a similar size to a quarry Hunslet http://c0728562.cdn.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/TY2549_HR.jpg Paul A.

Ohmisterporter Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 No problem, I knew exactly what you meant Paul, I was thinking in terms of the same engine in a much smaller scale. Somebody is doing a fine job on the 5" gauge loco, a nicer looking engine than Sweet Pea in my opinion. Please let us know how it runs when completed.
