she was actually built in germany, as were her sister engines -
haha thanks, was actually inspired by this pic
-
not bothered about it realy, also, at the moment it can't run at all, it has no motor, plus since that pic i've added a GWR style bonnet and a different chimney, planning to fit a new smokebox door and a westinghouse pump, so the jinty windows won't be that obvious
-
some progress, handrail fitted, chimney changed, safety valve cover added plonk it it front of a station, add some figures, faff around with some filters and it looks somewhat like an old photograph
-
begone cab!
-
that too, thinking about it i might keep the some and just add a new smokebox door and safety valve cover
-
smokebox door and some might get replaced too
-
going to repaint her comletely, probs going to be MR maroon
-
a bit of cutting and the 14xx had some progress, needs a slight extension to the frame and most likely a new boiler but she's starting to take shape
-
could've made a 2-4-0, but the splasher would be in the way and i can't be asked to remove it
-
thanks! came about by pure accident too! due to construction of the 0-6-0 14xx i had a body and chassis, it dropped on perfectly, thus this little fella was born
-
one of those actually did go through my mind whilst looking at the 14xx chassis and the jinty body
-
for once instead of thinking of "hmm that would be a nice bash" yours truly actually makes a thing, an 0-6-0 version of the 14xx (featuring a triang jinty chassis) the jinty chassis and autotank body need some filing, in the meantime i dropped the jinty body onto the 14xx chassis and voila presto, a very dainty little jintystein! just need some paint and transfers for her now (might cut out a bit of cab roof to make it look more victorian)
-
Ah thanks! i'll consider that one!
-
how about a seperate coal tender? (bit like the CR pugs sometimes did)
-
won't be motorized just cutting and glueing the plastic chassis/siderods and just have it as a nice little static
-
There used to be one, it was indeed dean sidings, only used the chassis of the Hornby (caley) pug
-
Here's the more refined 0-6-0 pug as i intend to build it, just pretend the lettering and number are the correct LMS font, used gill sans as a placeholder
-
this was quickly cobbled together, will refine it a tad later
-
i've had a bit of a think, come up with 2 things that would be pugbashable. A killin pug, can be easily made from a nellie cab and a normal Hornby smokey joe pug An 0-6-0 L&Y pug, which can be easily made from 2 pug kits (heck will probably build one myself soon)
-
Thanks for all the help!
-
actually this doesnt look much better, any chassis suggestions?
-
actually a terrier chassis might work better
-
Two donor Hornby versions of the 0-4-0 and a jinty chassis, and you've pretty much got this
-
Realy love the big boxy tank
