4mm high quality tablet catcher

[ecgtheow]

Can anyone let me know a source of a 4mm scale high quality caddied tablet catcher, please? I am sure that I have read somewhere of a company offers this, or did so in the past, but cannot remember where I read about it.

 

I want to replace the rather crude ones cast together with the tank sides of a loco I am trying to upgrade.

 

Thanks,

 

William

Was this not mentioned in Wright Writes a long while back?

It's not hard to scratchbuild the Whitaker version on the S&D.  There are published drawings, although I can't lay my hands on the source right now.

Thanks Stewart & Camperdown. Like me you remember reading about it so that's  reassuring, but I need a specific indication of where I can source a a detailed casting or failing that a drawing. I thought that I may have read about this on Wright writes so I will also enquire there.

247 developments have one listed on a pricelist but doesn't appear to be on the main site - I can't see a photo but it's part number TC1 @247 Developments - is it available still?

Lochgorm Models did/do a nice one and I believe the Highland Rly soc have one available. I have bought both and to my disgust cannot put my hands on them.
