leslie10646 Posted December 16, 2024 Posted December 16, 2024 Rails of Sheffield are selling the Dapol GWR 14xx 0-4-2T for £109.50, an unbelievably low price for a lovely model see - https://railsofsheffield.com/blogs/news/bargain-dapol-o-gauge-steam-locos-advent-calendar-day-16 Anyone need an 0-4-2 chassis for a BCDR tank, perhaps? It would make a nice ornament for the wife's Christmas stocking - better (and cheaper) than many ornaments? Much nicer on the mantlepiece than endless family photos! 5
Mol_PMB Posted December 16, 2024 Posted December 16, 2024 A remarkable price. I wonder if the chassis could be repurposed under anything else such as a 2-4-0?

Mol_PMB Posted December 16, 2024 Posted December 16, 2024 Maybe even a 2-4-2T? Holdings: 42 train, Kingsbridge, Dublin City, Co. Dublin.
Galteemore Posted December 16, 2024 Posted December 16, 2024 You could, although a kit for that particular one already exists in 7mm from alphagraphix 1
