kingfisher24 Posted August 24, 2013 Share Posted August 24, 2013 How Big is Newcastleton - any chance it'll be exhibited down south? david the layout is 28 x 10 ft and it would be nice to exhibit down south but that will be a committee job, we did have interest from a club in yorkshire but it came to nothing unfortunately. gary Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

landscapes Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 Morning All This is a great thread in my opinion, but it seems to have run out of steam, pardon the pun. How about some new contributions to get it up and running again, what do you say there must be lots of great models just waiting to be shown.

'CHARD Posted January 15, 2014 Share Posted January 15, 2014 I would tend to agree. I'm just in the unlikely position of fettling not one, but two, D49s that were WR performers circa '61. Yes, I know it's out of my comfort zone, but you know how it is - sometimes a diversion is good to restart the modelling mojo. When these are in a condition worth sharing I'll try for a few posed shots of them. 62712 and 62718 for those who understand these things Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy L S Posted May 5, 2014 Share Posted May 5, 2014 As this thread had gone a bit quiet, I thought I would upload a pic of my scratchbuilt N Gauge J37. This is based on a Farish 4MT Mogul chassis which has been stripped of cylinders and valve-gear etc. The tender drive has had the PCB and DCC socket removed to make the mechanism lower. Superstructure is mostly plastikard, it is reasonably accurately to scale within the limitations of the chassis. Just lettering, final detailing, coal in the tender and a crew and it will be done. It has taken me a week to get this far and has been a lot of fun, and realistically it was the only way I'd ever be likely to get a J37 in N! roy 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingfisher24 Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Here is my latest project completed and running on Glendevon at the Glenrothes show at the weekend. the loco received some favorable comments including one from an ex Thornton fireman who was usually on B1's and could just remember seeing some glens. he did say however that the loco looked too clean to him. The model is of 62471 Glen Falloch as it appeared on a rail tour which visited the border branches on the 4th april 1959. The loco ran very well throughout the weekend. The motor/gear combination as the loco runs a little faster than my other Glen which is 62496 Glen Loy. 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJCT Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 Very nice indeed... what's the basis of your model, eg Gem, PDK? - And what motor/gearbox combination did you use? Alasdair Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveArkley Posted May 15, 2014 Share Posted May 15, 2014 (edited) Latest addition to the roster, Farish J39 renumbered as 64795 of St Margarets waits it's next load Cheers Dave Edited May 15, 2014 by DaveArkley 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kingfisher24 Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 (edited) Alisdair The chassis is an old triang L1 chassis with an airfix 5 pole open frame motor and triang/Hornby worm and gear. The loco runs really well and even at low speeds there is no stuttering, i am however going to fit pickups to the tender to improve pick up as at the moment pick up is only through the drivers.

AJCT Posted May 17, 2014 Share Posted May 17, 2014 Thanks, Kingfisher - I built a Gem "Glen" many years ago with a similar chassis, but I don't think the motor is a 5-pole. Certainly recommend the tender pickups, though ! Regards - Alasdair Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly recommend the tender pickups, though ! Regards - Alasdair Well thats the tender pickups fitted - i think on the next glen i will try a differant chassis with the motor etc further forward so that i can model the cab interior. Using the triang chassis is all well and good and if a 5 pole motor is used but the only drawback is the lack of cab interior. If the tender were higher this wouldnt be as obvious but a good deal of the cab is on view. Time to put the thinking/idea cap on i think. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
