That's missing. The poor castings and just look at the tender front.... It's got to be an old Jamison kit hasn't it. Dave. It says further down in the description that it's a Crownline kit. And I though that Larry always signed his work somewhere. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Darius43 Posted April 27, 2020 RMweb Gold Share Posted April 27, 2020 (edited) “Artisan” 4-CEP From the title description, it seems that someone might have been trying to convert a Bachmann 4-CEP to 3-rail AC and has given up. Rather a lot of money to ask for what might be an incomplete set of parts. Darius Edited April 27, 2020 by Darius43 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like £20 worth of junk to me. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrWolf Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 I'll let this one slide for the sake of someone using their imagination. Even though my inner Grammar Nazi baulks at the word "convertion" instead of "conversion". Reminds me of when I was a kid and acquired a lima 4 wheeled DR coach in rough shape. Being HO it looked even dafter against my OO coaches, so the body ended up as a shed and the chassis ended up as a vaguely OPEN C with a load of logs. I painted it grey with GW on the sides. Close enough when you're 12 and broke! 4 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
