RMweb Premium Compound2632 Posted July 12, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 12, 2022 The railways throughout the British Isles grew up under the same rules and regulations, their rolling stock was designed and built by the same engineers and firms. It's only really in the since dieselisation that they've started to drift apart much at all. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only really in the years since dieselisation that they've started to drift apart much at all. ........ but even "since dieselisation" on the island of Ireland includes innumerable MkII and MkIII coaches and CAF railcars - with GB loading gauge bodies - of the same family as 'our' 195/6/7 units. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold The Johnster Posted March 4, 2023 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 4, 2023 That’s odd PCS, surely; there is a compartment for the stockman and a stove to keep him warm. 6 wheels makes more sense than four on a Beetle, anyway, insect, see, 6 legs… I suppose you could make it out of the Parkside kit. The next vehicle along looks to be interesting as well… 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
