Neath and Brecon Sharp, Stewart 2-4-0T in 7mm

Post by Newport_rod »

N&BR, and Barry, and indeed modellers of other railways too might be interested in this build one of Taff Vale models 2-4-0Ts,

I don't think the TVR ever had a 2-4-0T. Tender, yes. One of the Barry 2-4-0T's went to the Port Talbot Railway.

One 2-4-0T (Class C) No. 37 was sold to the Port Talbot in August 1898. The second, No 52, was sold to the PTR as a 2-4-2T in November of the same year at the request of the PTR.

Taff Vale Models is a company who are "Providers of finescale model railway kits, motors and related components". This is their website http://www.taffvale.wales.

I didn't intend to refer to the Taff Vale Railway, my apologies for the confusion.

Thanks for making it clear Rod. I do wish that Taff Vale MODELS (!) would bring out the same kit in 4 mm scale. Other than the Barry, Port Talbot and the Neath and Brecon, the 2-4-0T was known as Class D on the Metropolitan which, I'm sure, would help with sales
