Del Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 I managed to drop my Dapol Pug and broke the chimney off, so I need a replacement. Does anyone make an exact replacement (pref.metal) or one that might be suitable? Would Dapol have spares, maybe from the old Airfix kit? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rail-Online Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Hi, High Level do one I believe, normally part of their chassis kit. Cheers tony Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What they also show is how malnourished the original Dapol one is. On the left, the original, on the right, the one fitted with the 51L replacement chimney as part of the project based around installing a High level chassis kit, built to P4. Note that High Level do NOT supply the chimney in their kit. There are a number of lost wax castings, but this is not one of them. The kit is superb, the chimney makes the model that touch better.

RMweb Gold RedgateModels Posted January 21, 2011 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 21, 2011 Anyone do a 7mm one? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
corax67 Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 For 7mm you could take a look at the neat stuff from Smallbrook Studio Kits range http://www.smallbrookstudio.com/page_1201118902437.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Del Posted January 29, 2011 Author Share Posted January 29, 2011 Whilst wandering around the Dartford show, I found a trader with various turned metal chimneys at £2 a go, so I selected a couple of likely candidates. Both look like they will suit, just a question now of which one I like the look of most. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HTH Flymo Regretably, Wizard / Model Signals are out of stock of Pug chimneys; (they'll be back in stock "when the guy who makes them can be bothered to make some")! Can anyone suggest an alternative source of supply, please? Regards, John Isherwood. Edited October 2, 2019 by cctransuk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steamport Southport Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 I mean the one Rex has highlighted. Sevenscale/Springside rather than a 4mm version. On 21/01/2011 at 23:01, RedgateModels said: Anyone do a 7mm one? Jason Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

October 2019 - looking for replacement chimneys for 4mm. scale Dapol / Hornby L&YR 'Pug' locos; Wizard / Model Signal can't assist. ... or am I going to have to trawl Ebay for built Kitmaster / Airfix / Dapol 'Pugs' to cannibalise?

Steamport Southport Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 The only one I know about is the 51L version. For some reason he's been out of stock of most of the L&Y stuff for a while. I'm after the carriages to go with the 2-4-2T. Peters Spares had the chimneys until recently. They are selling the Hornby bodies cheap as well. https://www.petersspares.com/Hornby-x82378-pug-body-0-4-0-lms-black-gold-lettering-no-11232.ir Including without a cab for £4.69 https://www.petersspares.com/Hornby-x8238-pug-body-lms-11232-less-cab-oo-gauge.ir Jason Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are a couple of chimneys listed in the detailing parts list http://www.ragstonemodels.co.uk/uploads/4/8/6/4/48647195/fittings_list_2018_v1.0.pdf I fitted the brass one 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
