Are there any plans to do a full overall. So we might see her back in steam in the future Do you know. Having had a look on Flickr at some photos a the locomotive shed has a breage in the background which would make a scenic break. For a small layout under the stairs are any books on the Doxfords railway does anyone know? What where the other two locos doxfords used where they austerity 0-6-0t

Thanks avonside 1563. Nice to see the real thing still knocking about. I have found some photos of both of them at Sunderland on Flickr. I know the Doxford site well as my dad comes from near there but never saw any of it in use. Super model. It does look very small next to the wagon. Mind it would not be much bigger in 4 mm if my maths are right 3mm in wheel base. Any way to late to change my mind it's turned up after just 3 days not bad.

very honest i can't find another in that condition any where, better no problem or unbuilt also available but that condition

Has anyone manage to build one of these kits and could they post some pics please
-
I emailed backwoods and the answer is it is ho. The drawing was taken from a old railway modeler. They got the scale wrong. Backwoods say they have sold hundreds and have only had one complete by a p4 modeler.
-
After having a look at the photo of the kit I think the outside motion could be a head scratcher. So should keep me occupied for a while.

Would it stand out that much? Surely its only as bad as OO but in reverse where the rest world look right for once. I've found cps models high level kits and not forgetting juldith edge. So lots of locomotive. Rolling Stock on the other hand needs to be found.

hi, due to a house move i am having to scale back to smaller lay out for the time being, and what came to mind was a small industrial layout under the stairs it will be about 8' 6'' x16 inch. i have no track plans yet but i have just ordered the robert stephenson & hawthorn 0-4-0 ct i have just found out the loco is HO and not 4mm but i just like the the prototype so i'm still getting it.. i am also thinking of going EM but a made up layout and not set on any real railway.so i can run locos and rolling stock that take my fancy any ideas, suggestions or pointer i should consider would be appreciated ,

scratchbuilding a L.N.E.R. J21
farren replied to david65061's topic in Kitbuilding & Scratchbuilding
I have to agree with market65 you have managed to scratch build a locomotive to a higher standard of detail and quality of build that a lot of modelers can only hope to achieve from a kit if they are lucky enough. Looking forward to seeing your j21 finished and hope you will be Shareing your future builds -
