RMweb Premium Barry O Posted August 19, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 19, 2015 I have included this elsewhere but having talked to Mike he wasn't concerned if I add it into the UK Standard Gauge Industrial Thread Just been doing a bit of weathering on an Industrial. It is a Kitson "long boilered" 0-6-0T and has been "scratch built" , painted and lined by Mike Edge in 4mm OO. (ie he has etched most of the parts. It is not a Judith Edge Kit. It arrived in this state I was supplied with some colour photos of NCB Numbers 41 and 42, and, after a bit of ink and powder application we get and I want one! does anyone else? baz 17 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hartleymartin Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 The GWR are not the only people who built pannier tanks. A lovely model. Thanks for sharing it with us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian@stenochs Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Lovely model. You have captured the look of a working engine perfectly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beatty 139 Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Having had the pleasure of working on A No.5 as a student when volunteering on the North Tyneside Steam Railway I have always had a soft spot for the class and they have been on a one day to do wish list for many years. It's nice to see one in model form. Lovely job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sludger Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 Baz, a very nice model and an excellent bit of weathering. I would love a couple!!! Trev Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raised On Steam Posted August 20, 2015 Share Posted August 20, 2015 (edited) My dad was a volunteer at the fledgling Tanfield Railway when I was little and I used to play on A No 5 when it was stored there (but of course in those days I thought she was a GWR engine like the Hornby pannier I had). She lives just up the road from where I live these days and I sometimes see her puffing past Tesco ha ha. It was nice to see her in steam back at Marley Hill the other month too.

5050 Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Very nice model. I must admit that I could be sorely tempted if a kit did appear. It's one of those locos that seems to have lots of 'character'. How does it perform when propelling wagons backwards through 'industrial' curves? Is the long overhang a problem with buffer locking at all? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Michael Edge Posted August 25, 2015 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 25, 2015 I don't know, I've not tried it on a train but it does have large buffer heads. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Barry O Posted September 6, 2015 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted September 6, 2015 Robert, I may mention it to the boss next time I see her but it wouldn't harm for others to do so....and it's such a nice loco. Baz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osgood Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Yes please from me too - it would make a nice 7mm industrial kit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Barry O Posted September 10, 2015 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted September 10, 2015 If you are off to ExpoEM North this weekend Mike should have this with him. So you can ask Judith nicely if you want one. Baz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les1952 Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 I'd love one of these, and have put a pic of 42 at Derwenthaugh on Dave Jones' wishlist thread... BTW The GWR actually had one of these, inherited from the Cardiff Railway. Les (will someone do it in N also please) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
