Hi all
I've just bought an Arnold series 2 chassis with what appears to be a British body, maybe a Peco dock tank?
I know Peco Wills did a couple of kits that fitted Arnold chassis but not this one?
It's been suggested it may be a Fowler dock tank?
Cheers
Andy
I saw the photos on FB, they're a bit dark but I'm not sure it's a Peco kit? Like you I'm aware of the kits that used the Arnold 0-4-0 chassis but not the 0-6-0 chassis (to be honest most kits I've seen with that chassis are 009 models).
Peco did an SR/exLSWR class B4 0-4-0T kiy on Arnold chassis

Peco/Wills did the Side Tank above, also a 'Type P' (Peckett)

and a 'Type M-W' (Manning Wardle)

Peco did a Fowler 2MT 0-6-0 kit for Arnold chassis before minitrix did the RTR one.
Peco also did an Adams B4 0-4-0, Peckett and Manning Wardle 0-4-0 saddle tank kits in N.
There was also an LNER J ?? Kit for an 0-6-0 chassis.

Whoops. I should have said "what Mike said". I don't like the phone version of the forum!
It would seem it's the Fowler 2MT on an Arnold chassis.
It's going to need a new chimney mind and a service!
Thanks for the help everyone.
