Guest Posted September 15, 2018 Share Posted September 15, 2018 Just seen this on Sutton locomotive works SULZER SIGN-UP: RENEWED INTEREST IN INVERNESS HEADCODE BOX LOCOS - LET'S GO FOR A FINAL PUSH! With four new Class 24 versions in production, voting for further liveries has predictably slowed. We are still committed to getting more of these made in due course. There has, however, been a recent spike in interest for the ‘Highland Baby Sulzers’ (Scottish Class 24/1s with headcode boxes, headlights, snowploughs and tablet catchers) which has taken them to within a finger-tip of getting the go-ahead. We are keen to get these over the ‘commercially-viable’ line as soon as possible to provide us with a project to focus on next year and, as such, we are working on a couple of ideas to boost publicity. The way we currently understand it - from casual discussion - is that part of the problem lies with the fact that some modellers restrict their purchases to numbering styles rather than specific periods (and there's nothing wrong with that). It appears that for many potential purchasers BR blue simply equates to TOPS five-digit numbering. The lack of a TOPS-numbered option to vote for is clearly an impediment to achieving our aim. The only way of overcoming this would be to commission further tooling (at additional expense) for the flush-fronted ends, to allow a TOPS version to be produced. We could just print a 241xx number on a blue loco with draught-proofing strips and hope no-one notices but, without unequivocal proof, I wouldn't be able to sleep at night! Come on all you 1970s ScR diesel aficionados - can you prove me wrong? All research to date indicates that computerised renumbering took place after (or in a couple of cases simultaneously with) the smooth re-plating of the cab front door area. This means new cab fronts are essential. The timespan is perilously short – from re-numbering (March 1974 onwards) to transfer south to Haymarket and removal of headlights (Autumn 1975) was often less than 18 months! If I can be convinced, I am prepared to take a personal punt on the extra cost required for the incentive of an 18-month life TOPS loco (because I’d love to own such a model myself and can see the bigger potential for Highland layouts). I need to see some genuine feedback on the proposition. If you feel there really is strong demand, without diluting the pre-TOPS blue, please gang-up and petition me by e-mail with your thoughts to: slw@railexclusive.com If it is all positive, and can be made to stack up, we will add this option to the formal voting options in the next few weeks and launch a campaign to encourage further votes/commitments. The target for the type will stay UNCHANGED but all three options (Green SYP, Pre-TOPS Blue and TOPS Blue) would be produced if we achieve it. Do you think this proposal can get us over the line (or to a 4mm scale 1974 Wick/Thurso/Kyle behind a 'Highland Baby Sulzer')? Picture: A pair of Highland Baby Sulzers wearing the full regalia of snowploughs and headlights in the TOPS era (thus having re-plated front ends) moves onto Inverness fuelling point during late 1974. No. 24132 was renumbered from 5132 and repainted during fire damage repairs at Glasgow St Rollox in October 1974 and was withdrawn just 12 months later. Who can resist?

Bob Reid Posted October 17, 2018 Share Posted October 17, 2018 Maybe an opportune moment to update this list (below) - given its been over 7 years since I last compiled it and there have been a lot of additions since - and to get rid of that horrible problem with Word and formatting.....

The variables I've included at the moment comprise: Initial blue livery details Pre-TOPS blue repaint details Boiler grille treatment Snow-plough Headlights Bodyside solebar fairings (status) Gangway door draught-proofing Items 5 - 7 apply commonly to all locos, I need to establish which, if any, didn't run in GSYP livery with any of the features.

Just that although it seems to be a Class 6 goods, the loco's heating boiler is working. I think it was a 'mixed train' from Wick displaying a wrong headcode and with the SPV van equipped with a through steam pipe for the passenger stock. The slide is an original which I purchased a long time ago and unfortunately I don't have any further details. Edited February 26 by 27105 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium CloggyDog Posted April 6 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 6 Interesting and useful thread🤔 I've done a pair of 60A Derby Twos in H0 for my Far North Dounreay micro layout, D5114 (GSYP) and 5130 (BFYE), both from upscaled 3D shells/bogies/tanks from Lincoln Locos (Lenny is happy to print his 3mm designs at 3.5mm/ft scale). Both have been 'Highland-ed' with tablet catcher recesses, 5-slot boiler plate and sealed headlights. (I still need to make and add the snowploughs). Decals from RailTec. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
