davefrk Posted September 2, 2019 Author Share Posted September 2, 2019 (edited) Sorry but you are all wrong.... Electric lamps LNER style. Consists of etched fold up lamp brackets to suit LNER pacifics with a single centre lamp and B1 which had a double lamp in the centre, the etches have the grab handle for the pacifics which can be removed for the B1. Another announcement tomorrow.... Don't you just love the suspence. Dave Franks P.S. it's a scrap loco body and I didn't paint it....

Nice. Handy for the cathode on LEDS. That's if I could see the bl**dy pics as Mr G has screwed your post up. 7 hours ago, Enterprisingwestern said: Dreams?

Axlebox Posted September 3, 2019 Share Posted September 3, 2019 ...don't you just love a good product announcement, the anticipation, the excitement, the buzz and then the inevitable let down that it isn't your favourite loco, coach, wagon, lamp post, buffer* (*delete as appropriate)...still there are the dancing girls to look forward too... ...cue the dancing girls someone. ...PS any chance of a webbed NER buffer?

RMweb Gold Bucoops Posted September 3, 2019 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 3, 2019 I'm fairly confident these can't obtained anywhere - any chance of a GNR coach buffer? GNR Quad-Art coach A lot of LNER built coaches also received these instead of the usual round or clipped round Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Mallard60022 Posted September 3, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 3, 2019 I love a load of old buffers, however these Leccy Lamps look very smart Mr F; thank you. P Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
davefrk Posted September 3, 2019 Author Share Posted September 3, 2019 Tonights announcement although overshadowed by the news from that there London is epic for some but deflating for most I'm sure. People have been pestering me for ages for DMU buffers but details and sizes have been difficult to find believe it or not. Here we have a very common early DMU buffer And with the angled stool as fitted to many DMUs Other DMU buffers are OLEO pneumatic types fitted later, these have either 20'' or 22'' heads.

davefrk Posted September 4, 2019 Author Share Posted September 4, 2019 Another announcement tonight guys and girls.... Oh when will it stop I hear you cry.... It's all great fun isn't it. If Mr Jones can do it then so can I. ....Well that's maybe a bad analogy. NER lovers start slevering now.... Dastardly Dave. 4 1 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waveydavey Posted September 4, 2019 Share Posted September 4, 2019 Dave, Are you doing the non angled stools for the DMU buffers for us Met Cam and Cravens fans? Or is it a case of filing down the angled stools? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium PMP Posted September 4, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 4, 2019 @davefrk will the DMU buffers be available sprung? Pretty please with a cherry on top Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or is it a case of filing down the angled stools? You'll be meaning these Davey? Now I'm sure a man of Mr. F's skills could also sort out a decent etch for the lump brackets. Now to the very common (but rarely acknowledged) early 101 buffer. Any Chance Mr. F. They lasted until the seventies on some units. Nice & sexy. Different lamp brackets too. Apologies for quality of the image but i couldn't be ar$ed to dust of the neg. P PS Dis you ever get round to fitting the 101 windsrceen etches Wavey? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
