Re: Was Back to back gauge now other dimensions

Keith, ? I've remotored and regearboxed a friend's Palmerston, made originally, but not by me, from the Mercian kit. ? ? Mashima 1420 Motor ??? (High Level Gears)?????????????????????????? ? 17.00 Load Hauler Gearbox ??? (High Level Gears)?????????????????????????? ? 18.00 Flywheel ???????????????????????????? (Branchlines)???????????????????????????????????? ??? 5.50. ? Prices are 2012. ? This was 0-16.5, and I think you might struggle for width, but phone Chris at High Level. I'd to take bits off the brass work underneath the saddle tank to get it in, a few minutes with a Dremel cutter. With 108:1 gearing, flat out, 12 volt,(that's max on my home made controllers) is probably about right, but the slow running is excellent. ? Frank ? ?

Subject: Re: [O14]Was Back to back gauge now other dimensions? ? Thank you Brian and Adrian. Little bit more of my thinking, as there is room under the England saddle tank maybe I could include the side frames of a gearbox similar to High Level models/Comet gearbox.

Well then the relevance would be to keep the frames about 1mm. clear of the wheels at the minimum.

All of this is of no relevance to Keith because he is looking at an FR England loco - which has INSIDE frames!! :-S Adrian ?
