While the directory is still there it's worth keeping a link to that.

Well at least one type has the correct smokebox door.

EFE re-released the DJ J94s with an upgraded chassis

I thought the only change EFE made was the motor.

DS226 is D.116 .

You should be able to work that out from this list posted earlier:

There are a few builders advertising in the Railway Modeller classified adverts section.

Then you should be ok.

Depends on the locos - number of wheels, pickups etc. The frogs already have wires attached, if you keep these accessible then you can add juicers later if needed.

The primary traffic target for the LTSR originally was the Rosherville gardens at Gravesend. The ferry was an integral part of the operation. The Southend extension was something of an afterthought that grew to outshine the Tilbury line.

As stated above it is already a good push fit, even PTFE tape will be too much additional width and once pushed in tight for normal use the chimney stays in happily place, handling of the packages during shipping may it appears potentially cause the chimney to be slightly loose on arrival.  

Just found mine on the floor after noticing it wasn't where it should be. On refitting I found it was a rather loose fit. Then I turned it about 90 degrees and it became much tighter. So if anyone has a loose chimney try rotating it until it improves.

Tri-ang R218 as seen here at Hatton's:

The coupling looks like something homemade, but with the ends cut off it's a mystery how it would work.

Like this:

This was taken before I fixed the lavatory layout.

London Northern & Eastern Railway , LN&ER or LNER for short.

Some good news at last.

Pretty sure the FAQ said these are cancelled

From the current FAQ (on Hatton's website) :

"Andrew Barclay reruns are currently under review. Once a decision has been made we will be sure to communicate this to customers."

If they are unifrog points then the sidings will already be live all the time, that's how they are wired up. If in doubt, test it.

A layout for inspiration that isn't in the 7mm section:

I have not been to Warley since pre-COVID, and now don't much enjoy crowds, so thankyou to all who braved the busy halls for these photos. I was thinking that I had not seen any photos of pre-1860 layouts, then I saw this. Do we know anything more? The wagons behind look as if they belong to a later period, so is it perhaps depicting an anniversary celebration, or is it older stock on a newer period layout?

Better to ask the question now than wait until the tooling is done.

The renders on P.1 clearly show rivets. They also shows the indicator holders either side of the smokebox which are wrong for the Wainwright livery.
