Worsley Works: NCC "WT" 2-6-4T kit on the way

[Horsetan]

Am just after being informed by Allen Doherty that a kit for the "WT"/Jeep 2-6-4T is being worked on, with etching to take place at some point in the near-future. Apparently will come with castings. I think the chassis will follow a similar format to his "W"-class mogul, in that you can specify spacers for 16.5mm or 21mm gauge.

 

Excellent news; I am going for one, as I'd like to have a go at replicating no.4

Ultrascale and AGW both make the correct 6ft driving wheels (LMS Black 5-type), and pony / bogie wheels are freely available from both. Note that the driving wheel rims are bevelled, whereas the bogie and pony wheels are not.

Do you know if Allen is coming to the Cultra Railway Exhibition this year?

His Shows page doesn't have anything listed after 27th October 2012 - I wonder if that means a "no"?

The Cultra show is on the 10th Nov. He was at a previous show and had his kits on display.

In that case, you might want to be sending Allen an e-mail to ask if he'll be there.
