My memory is that Hollywood’s web site on-line ordering does not have
provision for 14 mm gauge, nevertheless, I informed Geoff what I wanted and he
was able to build my BullAnts. I have just run the callipers over the wheel
sets, and the back-to-back is 12.2 mm , which is the same measurement as the KB
Scale mine skips I use.
?
The BullAnt wheel sets (I think they may be Nickel Silver?) the electrical
pick-up is good, and they operate beautifully!
Are you using the TT (14.2mm) gauge Bull Ants
from Hollywood foundry?? How have you found they run on O14?
Cheers
Geoff

Hi David,

My Ruston’s are the KB Scale models (and I think they are fantastic
models!)

In search for more power and better running performance, I have replaced
the mechanisms on a couple from an Australian mechanism specialist company –
Hollywood Foundry. The “trade-off” has been that I have had to forego a lot of
the cab’s interior detail, however when the driver sits on the motor, most
observers would not be aware of the loss of the cab interior detail.
