Paddy Murphy did Jinty 18 and 19 a few years back in OO in NCC livery based on the LMS Fowler 3F “Jinty” tank locos, you can also respray a version of RPSI no.4 in NCC...

A hornby Class 2P makes a decent Castle

Some rtr LMS coaches may do, they did regauge and send some over from Derby back in the day.

 

Get some photos and go compare.

Try the Irish Railways group on the RM web site, Colm Flanagan is an NCC expert and you can see some of his work displayed there.

Thanks Wrenneire - I have PM'd you so am looking forward to being in touch.

[cg-antrim]

And another question - can anyone advise me on the relative merits of the Bachmann NCC Jinty and the Chris Dyer version of the same? Both are available at the moment in different places (not via anyone on this forum, so I'm not inviting acrimony!).

[BosKonay]

One is a relatively rare factory commission the other is a repaint.

 

It depends on whether you want to run or collect

[cg-antrim]

Thanks, BosKonay - run, I think! - so that would be the Bachmann you are recommending? I have a Bachmann Jinty in BR Black and it's a great runner, bought in Portlaoise when we were still living the dream.

[BosKonay]

The Murphy models bachmann is the collectible.

 

The Chris dyers are regular jintys repainted. That would be the one I recommend to run

Thanks, both - I've just this minute picked up a new Chris Dyer NCC Jinty, number 19, and ordered a few Provincial Wagons things earlier on today, so we're getting underway.

 

I've made a list of the locos mentioned earlier on and will keep an eye out for them on eBay, with a view to having them repainted.

 

Thanks everyone for your advice. And if any of you have any NCC carriages ...

[Broithe]

Excellent - no hanging about..!!
