w124bob Posted May 18 Author Share Posted May 18 These are the ones I found for 7mm, I as far as I can tell from a few images I've found, both real and O gauge these appear to be correct. https://www.roxeymouldings.co.uk/product/777/7mb038-gwr-collett-coach-buffers-round-head-by-markits/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lionheart's short buffered 7mm coach is an E140 and is correct as supplied. These generally stayed in their fixed pairs - the similar brake 3rds ran as singles but the model of that already comes with long buffers at either end. Attached shows the short buffers on a later E147 from a pair but is the same principle: http://www.gwr.org.uk/b-set-notes.html If you do want square shank GWR coach buffers, there are loads of alternatives. I prefer CPL and Slaters personally - the Markits buffers I've had before were over-scale, albeit not that type. Edited May 19 by Hal Nail 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
