JeffP Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Always loved these little locos, and would like a Y9 in 7mm. Slaters do the Caley version, so how much difference is there between the two, and is a conversion feasible? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncan Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 I can't give you information on the comparison, but attach 3 pages of the Slater's CR pug instruction leaflet, showing the beginnings as an industrial pug, then both CR & NB. Sorry, don't know how to rotate them. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barclay Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 The NBR version was more like the industrial one, the main differences being chimney and cab as far as I can see. I have drawings of the NBR loco from October '67 Model Railway News, which I won't post here but would be happy to PM you. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steamport Southport Posted May 20 Share Posted May 20 I think the Industrial version the kit is based on is Kelton Fell. You can probably see the differences between the two here. I assume it's got an etch for the earlier cab. The drawing above suggest so. https://preservedbritishsteamlocomotives.com/neilson-co-works-no-2203-ncb-no-13-kelton-fell-0-4-0st/ https://preservedbritishsteamlocomotives.com/68095-nbr-42-lner-9042-br-68095/ Jason 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't everyone simply turn their latpop on its side, handy devices with a screen settable at right angles to the keyboard. How I loved my first potlap for this capability when the internet was young and there wasn't the s/w to spin scans of 'the problem' around... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barclay Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 In that case I'll risk a screengrab - it's a very old mag, but I'll take it down if anyone thinks it's a copyright issue. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
