mattingleycustom Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Here's a K4 with most of it's Orc school of mechanical engineering design features well hidden: k4 Prr3768.jpg Talking of Orcs when is The Return of the King to ANTB due? The streamlining is very 1930's Art Deco, you can definitely see the LMS streamlined pacifics at the front end and the cab windows have a French influence - interesting!

RMweb Gold phil_sutters Posted January 16, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 16, 2017 Replacement buses are soooo boring! Southern steam fantasy Newhaven.jpg Come to think of it, the Lewes to Seaford branch would make a good preserved line. Running through the scenic Ouse Valley. giving Newhaven & Seaford a much needed tourist attraction. The Marine station would make an excellent headquarters and stock yard. There are still some old dock buildings of steam era origin, when the place was crawling with Terriers, to give a period feel. The old engine sheds went fairly recently, to allow the development of a new engineering college. Southern are planning to cut out the few remaining through London trains, so we wouldn't be that much worse off. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Captain Kernow Posted January 16, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 16, 2017 In America, Boxpok drivers were often used when doing an upgrade in the thirties, particularly on 462 and 482 types. You can call them "center disk" if you want. Here's a PRR K4 with a normal spoked leading set, boxpok centres, and a webbed spoke trailing set.IMG_0845.JPG I think that's one groovy kind of loco. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Limpley Stoker Posted January 17, 2017 RMweb Gold Share Posted January 17, 2017 I've just taken delivery of the brake rod and cylinder ejector spares pack for my Hornby Railroad Hall. It takes me back to the excitement in 1981 when I fitted the brake rods to my trusty Mainline Manor- That cost £25 and started my interest in GWR It still looks good with a new chimney and bogie wheels, on a Bachmann chassis - yet lacks the scary presence of the monster on the Newhaven branch... 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
