Ravens Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Trying to find the following, if any can help plese advise.Would anyone know where to find“ Ex-GER Holden J67/1 0-6-0t 68511 ”Also looking forThe Drummond D27 & D28 (NBR Class M) 'Abbotsford' 4-4-0 LocomotivesA Midland Railway through service over the Waverley route to Edinburgh was introduced in May 1876. The existing Wheatley 4-4-0s were not powerful enough for this service, so Drummond designed his Class M locomotives as replacements. Due to the urgency involved, the first four locomotives partially replaced an existing order for J32 0-6-0s. If these ae out there plese advise.

walkingthedog Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Have you googled them. If they exist they are fairly sure to show up? I'm pretty sure none have been produced RTR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Postman Prat Posted January 9, 2018 Share Posted January 9, 2018 Apart from the J67 the others are locos from 'way back when'. I've never heard of the prototypes never mind in model form. The J67 might appear at some time since it lasted until the end of steam in East Anglia, but it's likely to be a long wait. Don't hold your breath!! 😆 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The son of Triangman Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 If you are thinking about the Wheatley 4-4-0's, how about the "Diver"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LCDR Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 There is a N7 proposed by Oxford of course, which will certainly fill a hole, but the J67 does have the advantage in that the LNER distrbuted them widely throughout their system so there have been examples in Scotland, on Merseyside and of course in East London. Even I would add a J67 to my fleet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolseley Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Bit morbid don't you think?Now that would depend on the condition you model it in. Seriously though, wouldn't a Holmes or Reid 4-4-0 be a more realistic proposition for a manufacturer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J36atlast Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Quite agree with a Reid 4-4-0 - the D30's had such evocative names - "Laird o' Monkbarns", "Dumbiedykes", "Jingling Geordie" etc..And how anyone wouldn't want a "Wandering Willie" is beyond comprehension - a perfect complement to the J36, and guaranteed to be a best-seller for its name alone!
