Jamie Davis Posted March 20 Posted March 20 Hi all, I recently visited the Ulster transport museum, and have grown fond of their little narrow gauge peckett they’ve got on display. I am looking to model it for 009 scale. I am on this forum looking for diagrams and general tips for making a model. I have previously made resin printed kits from eBay and the like, but have never made a fully home built model of my own. Please send on any reference pictures or drawings of said loco. Thanks all. Pictures of the loco below. https://commons.m.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Ulster_Transport_Museum,_Cultra,_Peckett_Locomotive_No_2_of_British_Aluminium_Co,_Larne,_County_Antrim_(03).jpg 2 Quote
murrayec Posted March 20 Posted March 20 (edited) The National Railway Museum & the Science Museum in the UK have Peckett archives- one could start there. There is also a website archive of UK loco drawings, someone on her may be able to direct you to it. Eoin Edited March 20 by murrayec 1 Quote

Tullygrainey Posted March 20 Posted March 20 Hi Jamie, Welcome to the forum. It's good to hear from someone else who shares my affection for the narrow gauge Peckett at Cultra. I've sent you a message with some photos and measurements which I hope will be helpful for your project. Alan 1 Quote
Horsetan Posted March 20 Posted March 20 (edited) More generally, there seems to be a substantial number of Peckett-related drawings here.... Could this one be broadly similar to 1097? Edited March 20 by Horsetan 1 1 Quote
Galteemore Posted March 21 Posted March 21 Very similar in outline to the KESR Marcia - a standard gauge likeness 2 Quote
