Just trying a simple conversion job.

Good potential there!

The Dean Goods is a good basis for conversion into a J15 or an ex WLWR 0-6-0. The WLWR engines may have been based on a GWR design Robinson worked on the GWR under Armstrong & Dean before moving Limerick.

 

WLWR No2 Shannon (GSR222) as built would have been very close to the Hornby/Airfix model lined black compete with square firebox

 

There is a very useful RM Web thread on converting the Dean Goods to the round top firebox version similar to 184 or the Limerick engines in GSR days.
