Re: Was Back to back gauge now other dimensions
Keith, What I have been doing lately is using the Slater¡¯s FD01 helical 2.9:1 with a small gearhead motor, you can set the Slater¡¯s box so it is contained within a housing which holds it upright

Re: 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

Re: Was Back to back gauge now other dimensions
Keith, First and foremost, you need to have a look at some drawings for the prototype, also keep in mind a lot of purpose built for 2ft. gauge loco¡¯s had the outer face of the wheels running about

Re: Back to back gauge
Roy/All, I appreciate your concerns that the standards relate to the wheels you originally produced, so I thought it would be useful to measure my locos and rolling stock which use other types

Re: Back to back gauge
Dear All, Re the proposed back to back gauge being proposed. Note that the min-max of 12.40 to 12.50mm applies ONLY if you have the matching wheel profile - which is that proposed by the BRMSB as

Thank you every one who has asked for one. Currently up to 28 units. I might round it up to 30 and sell a couple on the Narrow Gauge online forum. Closer to when they are produced I will ask
