mphoey Posted January 10, 2020 Posted January 10, 2020 New engine purchased today believed to be a lienster models built cork loco 6
jhb171achill Posted January 10, 2020 Posted January 10, 2020 Wowww!!! A Cork, Blackrock & Passage (narrow gauge) loco in original condition! Larger scale than 00, looks good.
mphoey Posted January 10, 2020 Author Posted January 10, 2020 its close to o scale ive placed it by the oo scale loco in the pic 1
minister_for_hardship Posted January 10, 2020 Posted January 10, 2020 O scale I think, but 00 gauge as a compromise for 3'.
Colin R Posted January 10, 2020 Posted January 10, 2020 Nice looking model, out of interest what is the gauge of the wheel sets? Colin R
Mike 84C Posted January 10, 2020 Posted January 10, 2020 Total model envy! Shame to just keep it in a glass case.
jhb171achill Posted January 11, 2020 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?

David Holman Posted January 12, 2020 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!
