Re: SR fence posts
Having cycled and walked alongside LNER and LMR posts regularly a stain of rust fron the fasteners is probably more effective. Mark, I've messaged you.

I've tried to contact Mark via the Shapeways site but just get an error message.

Re: Who would want a form tool for re-profiling wheels?

OK I have a drive now but the brake gear is missing. Rods are available from Gibson but does anyone do suitable brakes?

I wonder if they will reintroduce the etched 16T mineral wagon chassis? It was wonderful.

Re: 3 way turnout length question
Have you worked out the general length/angle? If so then refer to the lead tables for switches and work back from there. Just like the real railways do

Re: 3 way turnout length question
I'm trying to get my head round that. There is a three throw at Butterley but this is a three way. Generally both the vee and the switchblade must be supported just like a normal point.

Re: SR fence posts
I've been thinking about these posts for Swanage which has the wrong sort (Ratio). How do I get a supply of these (or similar LNER/ER) ones. I'd need enought for about 22 feet length at least.

Re: Ratio Midland Carriage bogies
When I bought the Wild Swan coach books I knew a lot less about railways than I do now. There are large gaps in the narrative. Jumping from the early 1920's to "none survived into nationalisation", shows what the book is. A skim over the surface. No disrespect to Wild Swan as I'm sure they...

Drive for an N2
Can anyone suggest a gearbox/motor combination for an N2 please? I picked one up at S4N last year or so. Chassis is lovely - Bradwell I think but no coupling rods, brakes, motor or gears. I've not got access to a drawing at the moment.

Use a triangular file. Takes a bit longer but you can get a sharper corner.

In the current climate I still have to work. Perils of working for the emergency services. At least I'm safe.
