Beatty 139 Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Just looking at my next project in G1, for a long time since I was a student on Tyneside I have had a fascination about the Tynside electric system, I have already built a quayside Bo-Bo but now i am giving some consideration to a EMU, I was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of reasonable drawings, I know a diagram 100 parcel car was published in Railway Modeller some years ago but full of issues. I also know the NERA published copies (now out of print) of the carriage diagram books but out of the volumes I'm not sure which ones to target for the infomation I am looking for. Any suggestions, the more contemporary the better as the errors in so called model makers drawings are so frustrating! I should say my preference is for 1904 stock.

Caledonian Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Depends how much detail you're after. Any project of this nature requires Ken Hoole's The North Eastern Electrics: The History of the Tyneside Electric Passenger Services [1904-1967] Oakwood Press [of course] no.165 1987. As a matter of course he includes a number of original diagrams, including the October 1903 stock, although the A5 format is obviously a bit limiting.

Beatty 139 Posted February 14, 2015 Author Share Posted February 14, 2015 Thanks for that, I have that and the NER Record series that includes a few interesting details as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
