This Japanese site sells tiny n gauge chassis.
Most of its motors are 6V to 12V.
Is it possible to alternative for Tsugawa's 0-4-0?

Brilliant thank you for posting. For some time I've been working on a CAD Peckett 0-4-0 body to 3d print in the hope of creating a replica of 'Rocket' the one they have here at Telford steam railway. I ideally need an 11mm wheelbase and 6.6mm wheels but I'm sure with a little poetic license theirs would fit the bill at 12mm wheelbase and 7mm wheels  :thumbsup:

They use 6V motor, so it could better than TGW's motor.
Seems like they didn't post to oversea, you will need to use parcel forwarding service.

Cheers for that - I've emailed them requesting full dimensions or better still a drawing so see what happens  :thumbsup:

These look very interesting. Thanks for posting. I've designed various Peckett bodyshells around the N-Drive Productions chassis, but it appears these might be even smaller.

Its more smaller than Kato's Chibiloco
We could make finescale 0-4-0s

This is link of TGW.
You can purchase its chassis in ¥4500.
And even with small Koppel and Deki 3 locomotives.

Japanese company Toma model works and arumodel, which is famous for small HOe/n gauge product.
And World Craft also provides small n gauge parts.
But you will need to use parcel forwarding agency to purchase it.

Thank you for some excellent info #le night ferry . I really thought I'd end up having to do some dreadful bodge on a diesel bogie or something like that  :D

#maridunian Thanks for that - some beautiful models you have there  :thumbsup: . I shall be very tempted by several of them. I'm kind if doing this as an exercise to try to learn CAD and 3d printing. Its quite a steep learning curve but at least I have the real thing as reference just down the road  :)

Thanks - that looks very useful. Is it a 12v design?

"narrowgauge.com" seems a bit dodgy though - it's unsecured and the domain name is up for sale by GoDaddy.
