You are correct Andrew
?
No sooner than I had posted my reply, than I
looked around the web and found that some of the kits which I though had been
done where in fact figments of my imagination.
?
I will have to have a chat to that nice man
who has all the wrightline moulds to see what can be done and just what kits he
is doing.
?
Just out of interest, but what where
wrightlines called before wrightlines, I am sure they took over another model
manufacture before they started or am I just dreaming that as well?

That said, I am sure Wrightlines used to
do Prince and the?Darjeeling B tank and we know that EDM will have the
L&BR 2-6-2 kit at some stage, and I think chivers fines lines used to do
a 7mm scale Vale of Rheidol 2-6-2 as well, but I am sure the others don't
have kits, so there is a lot of scratch building to do in that
case.?????
Colin,
Sadly, your memory is playing tricks with you, the only part of that
which is correct is that EDM will be bringing out the L&B 2-6-2!
Wychbury Loco Works brought out the Ffes England loco which is now sold
by Mercian.
The Darj B Class is available through EDM Models, the only other 7mm
scale version I know of was a French manufactured kit, others have proposed it
but not brought it out.
Wrightlines got to the stage of producing patterns and castings for the
VoR tanks but this never got to the stage of being a released kit.
