murrayec Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 Hi 16miller Many moons ago I built SM32 locos and wagons for a chap's garden railway using Peco mechanisms for their 0-4-2 tram and Hunslet 0-4-0, they had planned to build a live steam railway but baulked at the cost of building the models and went for electric power. Unfortunately he is not on the forum and I have not heard from him since the time of the build- it got complex...... Eoin Quote
jhb171achill Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 I had G scale in my last house... I have a very nice scratch built Spanish 1100-class 3ft gauge prototype diesel, like a 3ft gauge A class. I also had a somewhat more crude Majorcan railcar (1959 Creusot type), and a couple of carriages and a scratch built E class guards van. All in storage with Nephew right now - could resurrect if anyone was interested. The line closed and was lifted at last house move. Eoin - do you scratch build live steam? Quote

Hi jhb Yes I have dabble in live steam- Stuart stationary and bits, currently working on a 3.5" Northumbrian kit and have designed a 3.5" Hibernia!!- but both shelved for the moment with all the other stuff going on......

16miller Posted March 6, 2018 Author Posted March 6, 2018 How many of you wish to see my 16mm models, admittedly Irish NG inspired but with the occasional genuine reproduction? Quote

I never painted it and the battery is probably done by now. It's in storage at Nephew's house. Must get it going again, right enough.. it's a fine beast of a machine. Quote
