| Britannia in Gauge 1 |
Still at the frame stage but looking good. I built
the frames with all the stretchers, assembled and fitted the front
bogie and fitted the wheels in 3 days! One day was taken up with cleaning
off the flux! All the major parts are drawn, all I need now is some
time!!! |
| BR1 Tender Body in 5 Inch gauge,
also available in 7 1/4. |
The initial drawings are completed and
the first trial has been conducted. I had serious problems obtaining
actual dimemsions to go on. The centre of the front is removable for
easy driving. 5 now being built, I hope to have some more pictures
soon. If any of you building the kit have pictures please e mail them. |
| Duchess tender body in 5 inch gauge. |
Two now being built and a third on order. All types
are available, streamlined, de streamlined and non streamlined. Why
did it have to be so complicated! It can be done in other gauges. |
| Princess tender body in 5" gauge. |
Trials should be comple and no untoward comments received. |

Frames and stretchers now done except for the pony
bogie and it's stretchers. All the parts are tabbed and slotted for
a fast build. |

These are now completed and I have done the trial one

good. A weekends pleasurable work. |
