Richard Lee Posted December 12, 2013 Share Posted December 12, 2013 May I please ask for a spot of help? I could do with some OO LBSC 1900ish transfers for some 4-wheel coach kits that I am doing as a side project. Does anyone know where I can get hold of some? Obviously, correct for the 1870 to 1903 livery would be ideal, but ‘near enough’ might do for me. The coach kits are from Smallbrook Studios: http://www.smallbrookstudio.co.uk/#/products-new/4569521214/LBSCR-Four-Coach-Set-of-4-Wheel-Stroudley-Coaches/3738609 I managed to get hold of some car spray paint that looks about the right shade for mahogany. I am sure that there were changes to the coaches between 1900 and the 1930s, but I thought that they might be a better match for my Hornby LBSC liveried terrier ‘Fulham’ than the Ratio GWR 4-wheelers. I strongly suspect that they would more likely appear in rakes of 5 rather than 4 during LBSC days. Thank you in advance. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sem34090 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 My apologies for the great almighty BUMP here, but can anyone name the source of the transfers mentioned above? If nobody knows then I'll try and get some done up for myself, and will (of course!) post the file on here. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium corneliuslundie Posted January 23, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 23, 2018 I think that if you contact the HMRS LB&SCR Steward (via the website) you may be able to get some information on Brighton transfers. Either that or the Brighton Circle. Jonathan 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skinnylinny Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 (edited) Hi there..... if you would like to pm me with your address I have a spare sheet of these transfers which may help you out Regards....Dave Brighty.... I'm actually now producing card kits for the Brighton Stroudley 4-wheeled coaches. Do you happen to have the details of who was producing these transfers?

Brighty1674 Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 The chap I got the transfers from was called Eric Gates, I believe something to do with Woodham wagon works, he lives in the Bristol area and I got the transfers about 5 years ago, I am afraid I have no contact details for him......regards....Dave Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluebell Model Railway Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Was after some LBSC transfers recently sadly Eric no longer produces them, so sadly pre grouping modellers are a bit stuck when it comes to LBSC transfers. I have a coach waiting for some which is probably going to be waiting a long time... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium ianmaccormac Posted July 21, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 21, 2018 I will be adding to the EB Models transfer range with 4mm Marsh loco next, then 7mm Stroudley. If enough want 4mm LBSCR carriage transfers, I could probably add a few down one side of the Marsh loco sheet. I need about 20 confirmations to make it work. Let me know. Artwork is ready. I wasn't going to do 4mm carriage transfers as Eric had only recently sold out. Cheers, Ian in Blackpool, see the EB Models website. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinnylinny Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 I'd definitely be interested in plenty of Brighton carriage transfers - enough to do at least half a dozen bogie coaches if not more. Please put me down as interested! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium ianmaccormac Posted July 21, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 21, 2018 19 to go then! Cheers Linny Ian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold BlueLightning Posted July 21, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted July 21, 2018 I would be interested as well!! Gary Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tic-toc Posted July 22, 2018 Share Posted July 22, 2018 Me too! Me too! I've been struggling to think of what pre-grouping south coast project to get my teeth into after my return to the hobby. A nice 4mm scale LBSCR "Balloon" driving trailer, for when the new Terrier comes out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium ianmaccormac Posted July 24, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 24, 2018 3! Any more takers? It isn't worthwhile doing these commercially. I could make some here as there is no white involved. I have done this before with very good results. Probably manage enough for about 10 carriages for a tenner. What do you think?

RMweb Premium ianmaccormac Posted July 24, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 24, 2018 (edited) Okay, for Stroudley carriages (Red shading), I have managed to get 28 garters; 30 lots of numbers 0 to 9 to go inside the garters; 24 First; 12 Second; 36 Third; 8 Guard; 4 Luggage. For Billinton (blue shading), I have managed to get18 LB&SCR; 24 lots of numbers 0 to 9; 24 First; 12 Second; 36 Third; 10 Guard; 6 Luggage. I am printing on waterslide sheet with an inkjet printer. I will spray 4 coats of Dullcoat varnish on the sheets after the ink has dried. £10 a sheet postage an extra £1 up to 5 sheets. If anyone would like a sheet, please pm me with your name and address. I will send bank details for a bank transfer. I am at home for another three days then away for a few days.

Skinnylinny Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Hi Ian, If you're using an inkjet printer, does that mean the lettering won't be in metallic gold? Or do you have some special trickery that's beyond me? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium ianmaccormac Posted July 25, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 25, 2018 Hi Linny I am using a combination of CMYK colours that Pantone recommend to represent Gold. Those at the Brighton Circle meeting in March thought my inkjet printed trial sheets were excellent and looked virtually identical to the professionally printed versions of the transfers I had done for the Umber Loco livery. Thanks Ian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinnylinny Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Hi Ian, In which case, that's good enough for me! I just wanted to clarify, but at the size of 4mm lettering, I'd be surprised if I can tell the difference, now that I think of it. Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium ianmaccormac Posted July 25, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 25, 2018 Just to clarify, all the Stroudley parts AND the Billinton parts are on the one sheet. Cheers Ian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gareth Collier Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 Even less chance of getting enough people to want them in 2mm. It was a sad day when the Alps printer died and you couldn't get anymore from the Brighton Circle and I think Alan at Etched Pixels is now out too although they came from the same source.

RMweb Premium ianmaccormac Posted July 25, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 25, 2018 (edited) I had time today. This is what I have managed. Sprayed in Dullcoat and ready to go, apologies for the picture quality, rubbish phone camera or shaky hands?

RMweb Premium ianmaccormac Posted August 17, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 17, 2018 Just to say that now I am home from my hols, the transfers are ready to go. Tic-toc has just reminded me! Thanks. If you care to pm me I will give you bank transfer details or sort out another way with you. Cheers Ian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
