That's a very kind gesture Jim and I would be happy to take it off your hands! The steps are not important as I would replace them anyway. if you can send me an e-mail with the necessary details I will get the payment to you. Best Barry

I am seeking a reasonably priced Tri-ang L1 body for a project to see it fitted with a scale chassis and replacement tender. I am not after a collector's item and the condition of the original finish is not important as quite a lot of remedial work will need to be done on the body. Scruffy is therefore quite acceptable but it must be otherwise undamaged.

Safely received Tom and exactly what I wanted. Many thanks for your trouble and thanks also to the others who responded. I have no excuse for not getting on with it now! Barry

Hello everyone . This is my first posting on this forum although I have been following it for some time and have enjoyed seeing some great modelling. However to get to the point, I acquired the Westward kit for the 54xx/64xx/74xx loco a few months ago from that well known on-line auction site. First impressions are that considering its age, the kit is nowhere near as bad as some people have suggested and I am quite impressed with the castings. Unfortunately the instructions are missing so I wonder if anyone has a set that they could copy for me? Most of the assembly seems self evident but the instructions will help with identifying small and alternative parts. Any assistance would be gratefully received!
