Title: Forthcoming Farish locos and couplers
Post by: DCCDave on March 12, 2013, 03:09:40 PM
Is there a definitive list of coupling specs for the forthcoming Farish models? In particular I'd like to know if the following have NEM pockets:


Jinty - 372-207
2MT - 372-625
LMS 50ft Full Brake - 374-886
Mk1 Horsebox - 373-360

I'd like to fit Dapol magnetic couplers to these.

Thanks in advance
Dave

I'd be surprised of the last two don't have NEM pockets. No idea about the first two.

Having said which Dapol have released the conversion kits for non-NEM pocket fitted stock anyway so you could convert them even if they don't have NEM pockets.

Cheers, Mike

I would say it's safe to say that the Jinty will NOT have NEM's as it's the older version. The newer versions (372-210/211/212) will have NEMs.

I also believe that the Ivatt will be produced with NEM's

Good spot Ollie, i meant the new ones. Graphics for 372-210 and 372-211 on a certain Liverpool retailers site show an NEM coupling logo.

Many thanks for your replies

Cheers

The pics of the Ivatt 2MT EP on RMWeb seem to show an NEM pocket on the front. There is not a clear shot of the rear but I cannot imagine they would not put one there if there is one on the front.
