Chris-ECT Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 Good afternoon all, For those of you joining us at Warley, you'll be able to get an exclusive first look at our latest Quad Art engineering samples! Come and say hello on the stand over the weekend - see you there. Chris 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold BMacdermott Posted November 24, 2023 RMweb Gold Share Posted November 24, 2023 Hello Chris I am very much looking forward to the Quad Arts!😃 Not wishing to add to your workload but will it be possible to have a video of how the coupling works and how they run round second radius curves? I can't get to Warley. I am sure you have overcome the 'problem' of close-coupling and I am intrigued to see how you have done it. Many thanks Brian 1 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanks Brian Good evening Brian, When we are back from Warley we will be doing some videos and images of the Quads in use. The full set only landed yesterday so you have beaten me to it but I will make sure we have a video mid next week to show their brilliant design at work.

Many thanks Brian I was shewn this today by their designer and it’s ingenious and rather nice. Not in the market for these but interesting all the same. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone here please put up a link to where the quard arts can be preordered? I find the Clark Railworks web page very difficult to navigate and I can't find the quad arts. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corridor Artics next Chris? Dear Dave at Southern Pride, used to do an etch. However that's long gone sadly. The reason I suggest this is that actually got as far west as North Devon and Cornwall in the early 60s. NO idea how but there us photographic evidence. ER folk will confirm that they were also used at Summer Weekends up in the East Midlands so must have run Empty Stock to and from as well as stuffed to the gunnels, east and west! They would also confirm the Coach Diagrams! 31A knows 'all' about them. Sincerely, Phil R. 2 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
34theletterbetweenB&D Posted December 7, 2023 Share Posted December 7, 2023 Excellent sample pics, (and unpainted in what looks close to BR corporate blue might well interest someone? After all they nearly made it into that most dismal of all UK railway colour schemes...) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Fair Oak Junction Posted December 7, 2023 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 7, 2023 They are looking fantastic! I can't justify a set, but I hope they do really well and lead to other interesting passenger stock being done 👌 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium Fair Oak Junction Posted December 7, 2023 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 7, 2023 Now, if they ever do GE section Quints in the future then I do have an N7 they could sit behind in the display case 😄 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
