RMweb Gold queensquare Posted May 28, 2015 RMweb Gold Share Posted May 28, 2015 My 2mm scale 15" and 16" Hunslets that I paid for at Railex arrived this morning - what beautiful little etches. I have quickly run a ruler over the scale drawing supplied and there shouldn't be too much of a problem getting a Nigel Lawton 8mm motor in the 16", the 15" is a bit tighter but I'll come up with a scheme as the 15" is the more attractive of the two so I'm keen to crack it.

RMweb Premium Michael Edge Posted June 1, 2015 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted June 1, 2015 Motors and gearbox from Branchlines - best contacted by phone 01373 822231. Wheels are standard coach wheels - not loco wheels - Alan Gibson 4005 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffP Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Buffers try Markits. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Michael Edge Posted June 3, 2015 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted June 3, 2015 Kean Maygib buffers (available from Branchlines) fit this one better, otherwise Gibson. You must have buffers with a thin tail or you won't be able to fit them inside the frames. Full size buffers are usually fitted in line with frames (for obvious reasons) but we can't get model self contained ones. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PenrithBeacon Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 may I ask which kit this conversation refers to? Regards Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Horsetan Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Buffers try Markits. Markits buffers have springs which are a little too strong. AGW/Maygib are somewhat softer in operation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rope runner Posted June 15, 2015 Share Posted June 15, 2015 Hi Michael, Have you thought about supplying an etch of detail parts for the Hornby Sentinel eg. Swords, sentinel logos, sand box checker plates etc? Knowing you already supply a kit for this model as part of your range, hopefully it wouldn't be too much work to compile such an etch...

RMweb Premium Michael Edge Posted June 16, 2015 Author RMweb Premium Share Posted June 16, 2015 We do the swords and Sentinel plate for £3 a set already, I hadn't thought of the chequer plates but the etches we have would be too thick to apply to the Hornby model. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
