ianwales Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Hi all Anyone able to point me in the direction of a 4mm scale drawing of the LMS Stanier 4000 Gall tender in any of the modelling magazines please? Ian Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiptonian Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 LMS Black 5 by Ian Beattie, Railway Modeller December 1998, and the book "Drawn and Described". This should suit your needs. Also:- Jubilee class, Railway Modeller, December 1965. Model Railways, June 1974. including Stanier 4000 gal tender. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black5 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Hi Ian, I have in front of me a drawing of an L M S Stanier 9ton 4000 gallon tender drawn by a J F Henderson in 1973. There are a great number of measurements on it, albeit some a wee bit faded but if it is of any use to you you`re welcome to have it if you let me know where to send it. Other than that, look for the mags that Tiptonian suggested and also Historic Locomotive Drawings In 4MM Scale by F J ROCHE. Cheers just now Jim.

RMweb Gold TheSignalEngineer Posted January 23, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 23, 2017 The Roche drawings do include a 4000 gallon Stanier tender based on those used for the Black 5, Jubilee and Scot, also one for the Pacifics. They need using with care as there were so many variations actually built and later modifications. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brossard Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Bachmann released Jubilee LMS "Nelson" with a 4000 gal tender. In reality, "Nelson" was fitted with a Stanier 3500 gal tender. Many Jubilees had Fowler 3500 gal tenders too. The story I read was that many Jubilees were allocated MR routes where turntables weren't long enough to accommodate the 4000 gal tender.

ianwales Posted January 23, 2017 Author Share Posted January 23, 2017 Hi All Many Thanks for the replies, Jim I will send you a PM, The reason for asking is that I have the drawing from a 1966 Modeller of the Stanier curve top 3500Gall tender and I'm wondering if it is doable to cut down a Bachmann 4000G tender to fit on the 3500 chassis to produce the curve top 3500 gall version I need for 5684 Jutland. anyone considered this type of conversion?

brossard Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Ian I did the Gibson kit of the Stanier 3500 Gal tender for mine: I think in hindsight the Brassmasters kit would have been better. The Bachmann 4000 g tender is an excellent model in itself, better I think than the Gibson brass kit. John Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leander Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 Look out for LMS Review Volumes 1 & 2 published by Wild Swan Publications. http://www.lmsreview.co.uk/issue.php?issueName=1 http://www.lmsreview.co.uk/issue.php Contains most you'll need to know on the subject of LMS tenders.

MacDuff999 Posted January 8, 2020 Share Posted January 8, 2020 Sorry for tweaking the subject slightly gents, but anyone know of a similar drawing of a Fowler tender? I could really do with one for a 'Crab' if there is one which is reasonably accessible. Anyway, how does the Bachmann one that comes with the loco rate? I would have thought that the Comet one might be quite a reasonable representation, if an alternative were necessary. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
