Nope no Sonic 56xx for me, a bit sacrilege I know but I don't like GMR locos, other than the Panniers.

Didn't know about the 27, that I might be tempted by.

All mine was not quite the outlay it looks, as I decided to step away from sound fitted locos, do sold my entire fleet on eBay, and got such good prices I was able to not only buy their replacements in non sound fitted but was also able to double the number, do technically the list above actually cost nothing, as the sound fitted locos had already been accounted for.

It was nice to have a splerg without the wife moaning about what I am spending.

New Dapol Terrier Gipsy Hill runs very well.

That is clever. Some advantage from e-bay madness! https://www.ngaugeforum.co.uk/SMFN/index.php?topic=1459.msg706439#msg706439] [url]https://www.ngaugeforum.co.uk/SMFN/index.php?topic=1459.msg706439#msg706439[/url]

Hi Newportnobby,

Thanks for the kind words about the Cemflo wagons, I am glad you like them.  I also want to acknowledge the part played by the NGF, because without it neither these models, nor the earlier Class B tankers, are likely to have happened. 

Both came about as a result of well-reasoned and comprehensive cases put forward on this forum by @Bob G and @NGS-PO, so thanks to them too and to all those that pre-ordered to generate the funds necessary to progress the models from pipe-dream to product line.

Anyone who didn't know about these, or wasn't able to pre-order for any other reason, may not have missed out: we will have some stocks available direct from Revolution on a first-come, first-served basis.

cheers

Ben A.

I was hoping to put a secondhand Farish LNER O6 here (as chassis for a Foxhunter Robinson LNER O4), but the dealer could not find it. So when looking for an alternative on his site I found these:



and this (I think it is the GEM kit):



and this (DB BR65) might donate its chassis for the O4:



The vans are a bit high, so I'll see if I can lower them; the 7F is also a tad high and I need buffers, vacuum pipes and couplings. The BR65 doesn't run, but a Union Mills GCR tender would solve the problem if it is due to the motor. All for €110 plus postage - can't complain.

Sounds like a bargain. The NE bogie wagons are old Poole Farish ref 3302 and do look to be sitting high on the bogies compared to the pic in my 1983 catalogue.

[Bealman]

Yeah, I've got one, and it sits high on the bogies.

[Alcazar]

It's because the "pizza cutter" wheels would foul the underframe on tight curves. I have some replacement spoked wheels that look very good and will give a little more freedom in reducing the height.
