    Looks like more than that, but unless John says yes, not appropriate for this thread.

    Almost the D95XX time, here is a copy of the WTT 14/6/65-5/9/65. Turn 708

    Does Annan count? Bit of a distant shot.
  5. Tim V
    Or how about Waverly?

    Kircaldy in 1978

    You may be right. However, the other three drawings in the same article are 15'6", 16'6" and 16'. If he was using a 'generic' drawing and filling in the lettering all the drawings would be the same, and then I 'might' agree.

    Photo looks like it has been over-sharpened in post processing. I wouldn't rely on the reproduction on this example.

    The Dapol model looks like a copy of the diagram, same lettering and number.

    Sorry, the drawing is an outline only, with details of the lettering. Copyright would prohibit me from posting. Details of the builder are not shown. 16'6" over headstocks, 9' weelbase.

    Just checked - I have that magazine! It's a drawing, Peter Matthews states red oxide, black lettering.

    It's in MRN September 1963, according to Leleux.

    I am reminded that some years ago you (the OP) built a model of a halt 'as a scenic backdrop for photos', it looks like you've done it again!

      “I'm left-handed - but there's nothing scary about that“
       

      One of my brothers and my youngest daughter are both left handed. And both were/are the biggest handful growing up. 
       

      So, yes, scary.

      I would ask Dexter!

    And then I remembered the box at Llanuwchlyn is the same!

    Lacking a colour picture, I painted my box with blue bricks, because most of the type 5 boxes I'd seen were in that colour brick. Then I found a colour picture ...

    I fell into that trap, best to check the photos carefully! Mine turned out to be red!
  18. Tim V
    Yes, there's normally a toilet there.

    Although I've been there several times, the Wrangaton box has never been open. However, the box at Drws-y-nant was similar, a couple of pictures of that.

    To me that 'extension' looked like a truck. I'm going to bid Adams Radial Tank. 4-4-2, outside cylinders.

    Clearly you haven't read the works of Peter Denny. You are describing a different phenomena. The buffers should not be in contact when pulling. Therefore they will not cross.
  22. Tim V
    You can only get buffer locking if you have reverse curves, so look to eliminate those. Or do you mean the couplings are too short, resulting in stock being thrown off?
  23. Tim V
    Well, that was a waste of time replying! Not even a thank you.
  24. Tim V
    Gosh - I'd forgotten my article!

    I used the original Bachmann coupling/connecting rods, and using Exactoscale bushes in the oversize holes. There is a slight discrepancy between the centres, but this can be accommodated by jiggling the bushes. A very smooth running 45XX is the result.
