SRman Posted May 20, 2012 Share Posted May 20, 2012 Just caught up with this one. Very nice Ashbury stock there and an interesting subject. The Southern converted some steam stock to EMUs and some EMU stock to steam haulage but how many others started as steam-hauled, got converted to EMUs then was re-converted to steam-hauled in push-pull mode as some of the Ashbury stock was? Usefully, there is at least one preserved Ashbury coach in the LT museum so one can measure up and get some idea of livery. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogerE Posted May 28, 2012 Share Posted May 28, 2012 I built one of the brass Ashbury stock coaches when Clive Thomas first produced them (before he passed the kits on to London Road). Because I was modelling the Met pre-grouping, I only built the centre coach, however was able to visit the Bluebell to actually inspect the actual coach. I did a review for the Scalefour News, and as a result met Joe Brook-Smith who introduced me to the plasticard sides he produced. I was going to purchase some of those from him, but other activities took over, and never got round to it before the great man died. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
