RMweb Premium Siberian Snooper Posted September 2, 2023 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 2, 2023 I have a couple of the new etched designed chassis and if I were at home I would take a photo of one in the flat, but currently I am in transit towards Heathrow for my flight tomorrow. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Captain Kernow Posted September 2, 2023 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 2, 2023 I have made up the chassis for the 16XX (under an original Cotswold body) and it was a joy. 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Methuselah Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 I seem to recall that K's did a GWR Armstrong 4-4-0 tender loco in their 'Milestones Of Transport' range. Has there been any mention of that model being produced again....? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steamport Southport Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 (edited) Kay Butler then to the BGS who mainly wanted the Broad Gauge stuff. Then CSP seem to have acquired them (possibly without the BG Rover which is still listed in the BGS list). Difficult website to navigate and link to. Put Rover into the search bar. http://www.broadgauge.org.uk/modelling/bgs_parts_prices_4mm.html Jason Edited January 18 by Steamport Southport 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach bogie Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 The Armstrong came out right at the end of K's when Teign Models were involved. I had one on order from Hatton's who were struggling to get new stock. I secured one from Teign Models and then the Hatton's one turned up. I was under the impression that not that many were made. The tenders on both had flaws and I substituted Kitmaster Truro tenders. Both are still running, one of my layout and the other on indefinite loan to a friends set up.

Mike Wiltshire Thanks - Very nice - I think they have to be the prettiest locos ever created. There is - or was, an etched version, but I have been trying to find one of the old K's versions, as they are probably easier to make. Failing that, I'll have to kitbash one of the old Triang Dean Singles as a last resort. Edited March 17 by Methuselah 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Moria15 Posted March 13 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 13 Can someone please identify a link or an email address to find out about these kits... I'm after a 2021 class and whilst I see references to a number of places in the posts, and even a reference to a re-released 2021, I see no way of finding a contact...

micklner Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 The above Branchlines email has bounced again . Is there any other email address known please ?? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Captain Kernow Posted March 13 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 13 It's probably easier to just phone Brian on the above number. Try again if it doesn't get answered first time, but as far as I know, Branchlines are still trading OK and should have stocks of the kits. I was considering getting a 2021 kit myself and if I had done so, I would have phoned Brian with my credit card number to hand. More expensive from Canada, I grant you, but probably an effective way of communicating with him. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

hayfield Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 If you go to the Branchlines blog https://branchlines.blogspot.com/ On the blog page (seems to be no longer updated) there is a link to their email which when clicked on seems to work, access I think access to their email is via this blog page Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as you have the email address you can order what you want, get a price and just phone Brian with your card details (even I've managed it 😬). Edit: of course you can do it all by phone if you want to. I'm terrified of the thing's personality.
