So am I right in deducing that 205 wasnt wire&pulley fitted, but could be renumbered fairly easily to one that was as there is little difference in appearance? (ie no presence or otherwise of an airpump to worry about) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMKAT7 Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 (edited) Hello Graham, Brilliant, thanks very much. I can now get my order placed whilst managing my other outgoings 😊 Just need to decide which BR version to go for. Edit: Order now placed for 30199, it had a year at Eastleigh late on. Cheers, Nigel.

Halvarras Posted May 1 Share Posted May 1 Is 30199 showing a welded side tank repair? I don't recall seeing that on these models previously. It's not on my original 30225 (since renumbered to 30200).... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karl Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 (edited) Afternoon, I am considering getting one of the new Olive Green 02s for my Isle of White fleet but would want to rename it. I have trawled the internet but having no luck so does any one know of anywhere where I could get transfers for for the nameplate surround? I suspect they may not be done as they aren't a set size but maybe someone on here will known different! Edited May 15 by Karl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe that Alan Gibson does or used to do a complete set of etched plates for all the Isle of Wight locos in 4mm, if that is of any help.

wainwright1 Posted May 16 Share Posted May 16 (edited) Had a quick look, but could not find anything, so assume no longer available. Don't know if anyone else does them. By the way, my local shop has received the new models today. Edited May 16 by wainwright1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is if anyone does transfers for the black and white painted surround. I'm guessing not as they are not a standard size being dependant on the name but thought someone may have produced a transfer sheet with a couple of different sizes. Looks like it's a steady hand painting job. Edited May 16 by Karl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You actually only need one long one as it can be cut and then overlaid on the first half to the appropriate length. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a good point, but I can't find anyone that does it as a transfer. Nick C's suggestion of contacting Railtec is a good shout I think.

Steve’s transfers would be good for it too as they are so thin, seeing if he could do a sheet with numbers and even the plates but that would probably mean two separate sheets as I guess the multi layers are a different process. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nameplates are available from numerous sources. 247 do all of the IoW O2s and a handful of other names. http://www.247developments.co.uk/ex_sr_names.html Jason 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IWCR Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 The real nameplates are in 3 different lengths, short, medium or long depending on the name. If you wish to rename without altering the lining you should be able to choose a name in the same group. Note: This is as the original full size items, I dont know how well the model nameplates are replicated and if they follow this rule.

wainwright1 Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 (edited) Hi Pete. Fame at last for you in last weeks programme. Got my new 02s today. Look good, but will see how well they run. I see that Kernows have announced the LB&SCR A type open wagons today, with several versions for the IoW. Looking good for an IoW layout.

Robin Brasher Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 My LSWR 02 arrived today and I ran it in this evening. It ran very well but I have not fitted the couplings yet as it probably will not go back in the box with the couplings fitted. I am modelling the Swanage Railway and I think that the 02s were in an earlier LSWR livery when they ran on the branch line. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wainwright1 Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 Would the available tooling allow for 02s in original Adams livery and Drummond livery ? Possible potential for further issues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
