cctransuk Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 (edited) Well - there's been a steady stream of requests for BR-WR 'TOAD' transfers for at least fifteen years, but I was deterred by the research required. A list member brought to my attention the GWR Modelling list of allocations at www.gwr.org.uk/notes/brakeallocations.doc , so I got to work this afternoon. Above are the first two sheets of what I intend to alphabetic coverage of BR-WR 'TOAD' brakevan allocations. The allocations are taken from the GWR Modelling list, and some are dated to the 1940s; I have assumed that those that I used survived through into the BR period. If anyone knows to the contrary, and can offer an alternative, I will amend the sheet as appropriate. Any other comments would be welcome; these first two sheets are available now at £7.00 each, including UK P&P, for 2, 3, 3.5 & 4mm. scales; S scale - £14.00; 7mm. scale - £21.00; Gauge 1 - £28.00 Further sheets in this series will appear on my website as time permits !

cctransuk Posted February 4, 2016 Author Share Posted February 4, 2016 John - What is B959579? Paul Paul, A typo - since corrected. I knew that I could rely on my expert proof-readers; I'm getting a bit bleary-eyed with this mammoth project !!

Paul Paul, www.gwr.org.uk/notes/brakeallocations.doc As indicated, I have had to assume that some 1940s allocations survived into BR days, but there is evidence that some allocations were very longstanding.

RonnieS Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Great stuff John! With winter coming a refurbishing project added to my list. BTW do you do a general Civil Eng wagons sheet? My train awaiting lettering is 10 vehicles of 10 types and I am a poor old pensioner (or mean?) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My train awaiting lettering is 10 vehicles of 10 types and I am a poor old pensioner (or mean?) Ronnie, I don't do any 'general' sheets, my experience of those is that they try and cover everything and are accurate for nothing ! My transfer sheets are all accurate to prototype, which is what most of my customers seem to want. Regards, John. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
