Wow ..... what a kit. No wheels or anything so I'll still need to take out a mortgage on this one but a beautiful kit with amazing cast parts etc. Pictures to follow Cheers Toto
Erm ..... do you mean a BR Standard 4MT 2-6-0 & type 2/2A Tender ( 3500 gallon ) Cos if you do ........ its the next post up. cheers toto
No I do like the so called Pocket Rockets But they are not western locos. I mean the 75xxx standard 4’s and the 73xxx standard 5’s
Ahhhhh ..... ok. whilst we are on this thread though ........ here are the photo's straight from the box. Rob ....... I hope if you are watching this in the front room ........ you've brought the comode in. No wheels this time ........ get a look at this ...... jesus .... hows that for instructions the multitude of lost wax brass etc ....... frets ...... frets ........ and more ....... and of course ........ more. beautifully presented kits from MOK. As Rob says ..... do you build it or frame it ....... if its left to me ...... I'd better get a frame organised . cheers toto
Superb, there are couple of builds on the Guild forum which highlight one or two things to be aware of when building these. I wonder if all the MOK kits came from the same collection that Ellis bought?
I think they have as Paddy picked them all up today before visiting myself ..... i think. cheers toto
And has gone back light handed Now I am looking forward to seeing this build, I've always had a soft spot for the 9F. Better start saving for those wheels tho' Paul
Maybe I could turn it into a static power generator. Think of the savings on wheels. Probably around the £200.00 mark. Please nobody tell me the exact amount as you'll only depress me. ...... then there's the motor and gears....... Should have went to spec savers.
Just received a set of MOK wheels for this kit from Ellis Clark. Just like the original loco kit ....... you have to see these. A beautiful wheelset. I'll post up the obligatory pictures later. Cheers Toto
and here they are ....... the packaging ...... the wheels ..... a thing of beauty ...... bearings etc ...... these maybe be a brucie bonus I suspect ...... the doofers and wheegits ........ full set of instructions tell you whats what ..... thats MOK for you ........ fantastic. cheers for now toto
Now that’s how a set of wheels should come they look the Mmm well yes Look to be better than Slaters they have been slipping with quality over the last couple of years quite often not true Running and often with corrosion occurring when delivered Are these nickel sliver they look like it
