RMweb Premium PhilJ W Posted November 14, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted November 14, 2019 We had a talk by Simon Kohlner at our railway group this evening and I asked him about the possibility of an Express Daries version. In fact he was unaware of that particular locomotive but he promised to look into it. 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chipmaster Posted November 19, 2019 Share Posted November 19, 2019 The Rosebridge and Ince Hall Wagon Works 48ds no 244580, of 1946, and currently at Astley Green, is a very different locomotive to ED10, which was supplied to Beeston Sleeper works new in 1958 no 411322, and is now at Irchester Narrow Gauge Railway Trust.

Chipmaster, It is not clear to me whether your post is intended to refer to my post (above) re ED10. It is my understanding BR ED10; a 3'-0'' gauge loco supplied for use at Beeston Sleeper Works, (as you say); subsequently went to Tracked Hovercraft Limited near St. Ives (Cambridgeshire). It was there fitted with non-flanged wheels and adapted to run on the concrete beam tracks of the (abhortive) tracked hovercraft project; (as per Honest Tom's photo above). It's subsequent ownership is not known to me. Regards, John Isherwood. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian_M Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Has anyone yet got their hands in the little red Dewar's version? It was reviewed in BRM at the same time as the green one but I haven't yet heard anything from Rails about my preorder. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pre Grouping fan Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Hornby show it as in stock on their website so assuming it'll reach retailers soon Both the other two outstanding models listed as Winter 19/20 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chipmaster Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 Cctransuk If you look up the Irchester Narrow Gauge Railway Trust, you can see ED10, still on 3' 0" ft track, looking extremely well cared for, unlike the sorry state of the standard gauge 48ds at Astley Green. I thought from your post you were saying they were one and the same loco, many apologies if I misunderstood you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they did milk tankers in the same livery, I bet they'd inspire more than one micro-layout. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They really are cracking little runners (without the wagon in tow, which is a waste really) with so much potential. Small, but perfectly formed!!

Once again a superb runner, even over some uneven trackwork on my test plank. I really must sort that out! Tod 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rembrow Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 According to Hornby info released to retailers such as Kernow and Rails in the last few days, there are a large number of new releases planned to be with retailers before Christmas. This includes both the remaining Rustons with no door cabs, Army and Longmorn Distillery (Queen Anne). 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pre Grouping fan Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Hornby's latest arrivals page is full of new goodies. Looks like my bill to Kernow will be expensive in the next few weeks with the new Bachmann arrivals too. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've also got the Army one on order. The Army liveried one is now showing as having arrived on the Hornby Website. As mentioned previously here, I am thinking of converting it to the Broad Clyst shunter - DS1169. I know that the numberplate is available, but what is the best method of removing the Hornby lettering as I suspect the the DS1169 plate will be smaller? Also, I have just seen that the rear of the loco has wasp stripes - has anyone seen photos of the back of DS1169 - was it similar? Finally, DS1169 was at Broad Clyst until the WR Takeover in 1964 and the moved to Yeovil. However, the IRS records show that for a short time in 1964 it was at the Taunton sleeper works - here's a Chance for the BR(W) modellers then! 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium PhilJ W Posted December 10, 2019 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 10, 2019 Best, and safest way to remove tampo printing is a dab of T-cut on a cotton bud. Rub gently using a circular motion and clean the area thoroughly afterwards before adding paint, glue or nameplates. DO NOT USE nail varnish remover or other acetone products as this can affect some plastics. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent news Dan; my two will soon be heading back over the Severn to their new home in Wiltshire. I better get on with putting together various part built buildings to make a layout for one of them, and seriously get my plans sorted for a layout for the other one. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Geoff, Who offers the number plate for DS1169? and either toothpaste or Brasso applied with a cotton bud will remove tampon printed lettering, just be gentle.
