Can a M7 or 2P chassis fit under a Triang L1
Charlie replied to HornbyA3Fan's topic in Modelling Questions, Help and Tips
L1 bogie 3' 7" Driving wheel 6' 8" T9 bogie 3' 7" Driving wheel 6' 7" M7 bogie 3' 7" Driving wheels 5' 7" 2P bogie 3' 6.5" Driving wheels 6'9" Any help? -
Have just seen a Dapol Western Princess in Maroon SYP being advertised on a shop's site. Is that correct?
-
Something tells me however, that this would be at a cost to Dapol. Only DapolDave is in the position to say whether this is an option, or replacement bodies like Bachmann did with the 416's. I'm hoping that the Maroons won't be affected by this, again only DapolDave can say!

Western Sahara? Western Union? Western Hemisphere? And of course Western Cheddar, a bit strong that one...

Class 205 in Conjunction with Kernow Model Shop
Charlie replied to Nobby (John)'s topic in Kernow Model Rail Centre
I know the NSE one didn't drop with the others as things were still being thrashed out. Though when I asked it was expected that a similar fall would take place. We will see I guess. -

Charlie replied to Nobby (John)'s topic in Kernow Model Rail Centre
You and me both Pugsley. Will look great sat beside my NSE 411 in the station -
Yay! More small parts for me to lose in the carpet when fitting them Seriously though, it's a cracking looking model and I think I will be adding one to go with my 22. Just one question to Dave, if I remember rightly you said the Maroon ones were coming later due to some issue. Is this the March that Hattons are advertising or is it unclear yet?
-
Wait what's that sound? My wallet is screaming again! Well done to Dave and all at Dapol, I hope all future projects are a) get as fantastic a response and as much help as this one has and b) look as stunning. Roll on the Royal Alex
-
Can't remember off the top of my head but it is mentioned several times through the thread.
-
Not sure if that counts now as I sent mine back with the body and still haven't heard anything back yet!
-
Has there been a picture from a similar angle shown anywhere? Can't say I see it being too hard to replicate as moulded rather than separate.
-
Hmmmm, now worried, think I need to check my Achilles then...
-
Well I got a cheque for the cost of posting my package, but no model back yet. That said I'd imagine I'm well down the line so not losing hope just yet
-
Thanks, did look on flickr but didn't come across that one.
-
Realise this is a little old but really struggling with this. Does anyone have a nice clear image showing what pipe goes where? The Heljan one is terrible and from what I can find on the web nothing tells me if I should include the air control pipes or which is higher, the main reservoir pipes or the air brake pipes. Thanks in advance!

I returned my 31110 when the cab went at the retaining screws holes. Sent off today, hopefully back soon
-
So have I, with an apology for the length of time it has taken to reply. Here's hoping!
-
Sadly another tale of woe. I've been keeping a close eye on my 31110 and noticed a droop this morning, removing the body confirmed another chassis failure to add to Hornby's list. Just messaged them but not hopeful I'll get a quick reply...
-
Now slightly worried as I have a 31 110 on my shelf. Were there two runs of that number? If so, how do i tell which is which, preferabbly before the end drops off...
-
If you get their regular newsletters you would note that it's been mentioned on there and on the site. It's only new orders that are affected IIRC.
-
Brilliant. Thanks for that Charlie I look forward to the first arrivals
-
Sorry Charlie have I read this right? ALL the 144's are coming out before the 143's? If so I need to hunt down the RR one!
-
I'd have thought the pump would be a separate fitted piece anyway and therefore Dapol/Kernow can accomadate all versions.
-
Brilliant, Thank you for that
