jhb171achill Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Wowww!!! A Cork, Blackrock & Passage (narrow gauge) loco in original condition! Larger scale than 00, looks good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WRENNEIRE Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Looks like S gauge maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minister_for_hardship Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 O scale I think, but 00 gauge as a compromise for 3'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colin R Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Nice looking model, out of interest what is the gauge of the wheel sets? Colin R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike 84C Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 Total model envy! Shame to just keep it in a glass case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhb171achill Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 If it's motorised, presumably it was built to operate - but did it? And if so, dare we wonder where the rolling stock is that ran with it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Holman Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Lovely thing. Suggest testing it with a couple of wires to the wheels, to see how many it picks up from. Rule number one though, make sure the gears and axles are lightly oiled and the wheels and pick ups clean! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
