RANGERS Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 An obscure wish, but planning ahead for the layout project I always wanted, a Crosville Seddon Pennine Dual Purpose single decker, or in Crosville speak, an "EPG", in 4mm scale. Cotswold did a half decent kit some years ago which with a little effort could be turned into a pretty good model. They regularly turn up second hand, I've seen them on stands at toy fairs, exhibitions and on a certain on-line auction site. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
javlinfaw7 Posted January 11, 2018 Share Posted January 11, 2018 (edited) Has anyone seen a HO (or 00) scale Landrkver Defender 90 with a metal back that has windows and the small windows in the roof? Ideally painted blue but I can sort that bit myself Has anyone seen a HO (or 00) scale Landrkver Defender 90 with a metal back that has windows and the small windows in the roof?

wiggoforgold Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 I'd like a 1.76 Bedford TK flatbed or coal lorry. I know theyv've been done in the past, but can I find one now? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fodenway Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 I've entertained thoughts of converting a JB Models (latterly Airfix) Land Rover into an Austin Gypsy. Given the amount of 1/76 Land Rover varieties available R-T-R and in kit form, I'm surprised no manufacturer has yet produced a Gypsy - or for that matter, a Mini-Moke.

Mad McCann Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Wouldn't mind a decent Morris LD van. I know there's a diecast one about but it looks overscale and chunky for finescale 1/76 purposes. D4. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
fodenway Posted January 29, 2018 Share Posted January 29, 2018 Rod Parker did one in whitemetal, and MTS did a plastic kit, both 1/76. Both a bit scarce now, but sometimes turn up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium PhilJ W Posted January 29, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted January 29, 2018 Almost anything pre war in 1/22 scale ? If your prepared to accept a model slightly underscale theres quite a few models in 1/24 scale. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium acg5324 Posted February 2, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 2, 2018 Does anyone do a Bedford TK in N scale? Kit or RTR would do. This is the PG models cab married to a modified BT models box van chassis and enlarged body. This will gain some Harrods logos eventually. And whilst being worked on.....I changed my mind what it represent hence the change of colour. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albie the plumber Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 How about an established model like the Bedford TK truck in an NCL/ national carriers livery ? They were everywhere in the 1970's yet you can't pick up a single vehicle ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RANGERS Posted March 23, 2018 Share Posted March 23, 2018 How about an established model like the Bedford TK truck in an NCL/ national carriers livery ? They were everywhere in the 1970's yet you can't pick up a single vehicle ! Not sure NCL had many TKs, others would know better, but the Bedford’s I remember with NCL we’re TJs with coachbuilt parcel van bodies. The tractor units were Karrier and Ford D series. BRS Parcels/ Roadline had TKs and have both been available from EFE in the past. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
birch1 Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 Both aren't really vans, buy here are my two wishes: 1. For Oxford to produce minibus versions of their most up to date Transit 2. A 1:76 Plaxton elite coach from Oxford also. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karhedron Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 An N gauge 1950s milk float (prefferably one that United Dairies could have used). Doesn't even need to be RTP, I would be quite happy with a kit but I cannot find anything earlier than the late 60s (and that is questionable). One of these would do nicely. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BernardTPM Posted March 27, 2018 Share Posted March 27, 2018 There was a really nice 1:42 version of that in the Tri-ang Spot-on range. I even remember them in the all red colour! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
