Title: Class 22
Post by: Caz on July 17, 2012, 05:23:09 PM
I've just discovered that the Class 22 was used on the Fairford Branch.  I've had a quick search and can only find an 00 version, does anyone know whether there has been an N version or a kit to convert something else.
:beers:

Two
- NSprays (Dave Jones pre Dapol) did a passable resin one
- Worsley Works do a nice etched scratch aid (although in this case the extras mostly involve buffers and redoing the roof grilles)

Dapol are supposed to be doing one RTR in N eventually - so check the catalogue tomorrow before ordering!

Thanks EP, thats was a nice quick reply, have to rely on someone else for the catalogue look-see though.  If the catalogue is any good I might order one but it will take a while to reach here.
:thumbsup:

Hi caz - as EP said, it is STRONGLY rumoured that Dapol will use the shrink ray on the bigger version. If so, that's one off the poll list :thumbsup:
We'll all keep an eye open for you.

I certainly hope that Dapol can "shrink" their 00 version.
It would look good on my Cornish branchline.

As soon as I get a whiff of one, my pre order will be in ;D
It's one hydraulic I really need.

I look forward to tomorrow.  That said as a Scottish modeller it is the 21/29 I would want to see!!!

Lets hope they are more reliable then the full size version. At least they kept me busy when I was an apprentice. Very busy if all three of Reading were lined up outside the depot when i arrived for work.

What sort of purse do you have then, is it a sparkly one??  ;D

I've now got this mental image of the scene in "Wallace & Gromit - Curse of the Were-rabbit" when Philip the Bull Terrier pulls out a flowery purse in the middle of the plane-chase  :smiley-laughing:

Only use a sparkly one when I'm out on the town!   8)  Otherwise it depends on which handbag and that depends on the shoes and they depend upon the outfit - you guys have no idea of what we have to go through  :smiley-laughing: :smiley-laughing: :smiley-laughing:

Presumably matching the "................." he is making out of what is left over.

Sounds like quite an outfit.

OK OK - what with the layout, the purse and the fact I sell rubber goods and lubricants, I guess this could lead y'all to jump to conclusions.

Really, I am the one who puts the black bits into the Liquorice Allsorts :evil:
