Hi, I have, for reasons unbeknownst and unexplainable, acquired a Lee Marsh 517, number 1428 in the pre-1906 livery, with DCC sound.

It is all those wonderful things you have heard, but if I had gotten my act together when they were produced, I would have bought one in Scale 7.

 

So, does anyone have, or know someone who has, a Scale 7 version of a 517 in this livery (lined wheels and everything) who is looking to change it for one in 0 fine? Doesn't have to be this particular numbered loco, as the chassis could be swapped. (I can remove the dcc decoder if necessary.)

 

I know that sounds odd, but someone may have on in S7 for display, and not object to the exchange. I could probably reprofile the wheels and fit them onto new axles, once I can re-establish my workshop (Myford currently not accessible) but would rather not run the risk of damage to the paint finish.
