Slaters do some wheels. I got some for my aborted 3ft Ravenglass and Eskdale project they are not bad and they will supply standard gauge wheels on 3ft axles. Marc Marc Dobson Furness Railway Wagon

Hi Kelvin, I would suggest looking at David Holman's Fintonagh - Irish Narrow Gauge 7mm/ft on 21mm gauge. David has a thread on the Irish Railway Modeller forum.

I’ve abandoned thoughts of using 5.5mm/ft on 16.5mm. Is anybody on this list modelling the Irish or IoM in 7mm on 21mm gauge track? I want advise on available kits etc. thanks best

?Hi David - I’m awaiting a baseplate etch test sample from Narrow Planet (with associated clip - you would have to source the bolt separately) as per the Lynton and Barnstaple in SR days, now

The Kadee coupler is not sprung. It is a tight fit so it won't flop around, but it can move a bit. With small industrial locomotives you can normally get away without using the Kadee draft box as the

That productive group of northern French NG modellers that rejoice under the title "escadrille saint michel” have a Nigel Lawton Simplex that works well, and might even boast KaDee couplers. I spoke

I just thought I'd put in my twopeneth. I built the simplex when they first came out, so I can't remember the details, but I didn't have any trouble getting the fan to work. Unfortunately, when gluing

Thanks to all those who responded. No-one appears to have made the fan work, so I won't feel to bad about it either. I have just bought a KBScale Lister kit with driver. The driver is too fat to fit

Michael, Did more or less what you did with the coupling but on a KB Scale Lister. One trick, drill into the end of the shaft and Araldite in a very thin length of phosphor bronze wire so the

I used the other KB Scale figure, also available from S&D Models. [Image] I think it was originally intended for the Ruston LBT models from Roy C Link/KB Scale. I find it a very versatile figure as
