Driving wheels still transposed, though.... looks a bit mad when the balance weights are in the wrong place
-
Are the driving wheels and rods the wrong way round? I see the balance weights are in the wrong place, which suggests that the leading pair have been mounted on the rear axle, and vice-versa....

The general wisdom is that horses travel better if they don't see the scenery or other traffic going past, which is why horseboxes and trailers tend to be mostly solid wall, with vents higher up. That said, some equines don't really mind having a look out. I've followed trailers where the horse or pony is enjoying a haynet whilst watching out of a window, and at least one converted Renault Trafic van which had a pony facing the rear, watching me through the rear windows! -
A 3d printed 800 class for 00 (and a WLWR goods loco)

It's tempting. What would really complete the illusion is a widened footplate - the Woolwiches were 6 inches wider - all of the extra being added between the frames - than the Southern Railway sisters. -
Also this link here and this Google Search result

Some links here, but not sure if they all still work

You may have been there the weekend it rained, leading to the canvas tent roof collapsing and dumping quite a decent amount of rainwater onto a trade stand....

One PO/Heuston van kit, please

"Voiding the Warranty" - Mol's experiments in 21mm gauge

Thing with Templot is that places like Claremorris and Macmine Junction suddenly become possible.... -

It wouldn't be Chatham without some sort of rain.

"rpsisales", I think

Metro Dublin metro procurement to begin this year
Horsetan replied to spudfan's topic in What's happening on the network?
Bet SIPTU, etc. weren't happy about that -
Just after acquiring this from the RPSI's eBay shop. Not a bargain, but not a rip-off either. 21mm gauge beckons...

To think that this thing led indirectly to the Pacers......

That, there, is just another indication of our feral society.

For the engines that were supplied to the GNRI by Beyer-Peacock, you do get the full works, but the trouble is that you have to know where to find them - The Manchester Museum of Science and Industry has them, but they are no longer accessible online after yet another reorganisation. Access to the Great Central Railway locomotive diagrams has also been lost.
-
One regular characteristic of these GNR diagrams is that you only get the side-view measurements only - no end-on, or plan views.
-
Did you find what you wanted in the end?

3ft gauge steam at the giants causeway railway
Horsetan replied to Jamie Davis's topic in General Chat
More than anyone is prepared to pay, it would seem. Come back in 10 years' time and see if they're still there. -
In that case, Killian, would you consider printing a full 400-class tender for me?
-
It's a 3345-gallon tender which appears to be a very close resemblance to the type attached to 400/500 class. The RPSI do mention that they think it might be a 400-class tender; there don't seem to be any other types that fit the description.
-
Whilst we're on the subject of the 400 3D-print, would it be possible to order just the tender on its own? Reason for asking is that I'd like one to be attached to my build of J15 no.186 to portray her preserved state.
-
It's not just the 400s, but also the 500 class 4-6-0s which maybe one day should also be considered for modelling - in some ways more versatile than the 400s, but there were only three.....
