Class 22

Caz · 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.

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.

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

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

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!!!

hopefully there will be a few nice suprises!

More expense - poor old purse is going to take a bit hit in the coming year

Me too, especially as I won't be satisfied with just the one

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??

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
