Possible 4mm Welsh Locos

Post by Newport_rod »

88D, run by member Mike Morris, have been producing 7mm loco kits for a few years and are considering making 4mm versions of some of them dependent on interest. They would flat-packed etched bodies and chassis only (i.e. no castings or 3D printed parts). The chassis would be incorporate bearing holes with partially-etched outlines to assist cutting out for horn-blocks. Frame spacers would be provided for 16.5, 18.2 and 18.83mm gauge variations. Potential candidates could be any of the current 7mm range except the GWR County tank (see https://88d.uk/pups/Catalogue.asp).

If you would be interested please let me know by email at rod@brodawel.net
