What About The Bee Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 Samson (LMR 13) and Goliah (LMR 15) are 0-4-0 versions of Planet (LMR 9), 2-2-0. There are a few essential differences, and I have been researching them. After all, in designing a OO Planet, I can get Samson or Goliah with minimal additional effort. In that research, I encountered this imageEduard Biot Manuel de Constructeur De Chemins De Fer, 1834. The wheel arrangement indicates Rocket class. 0-2-2. The lowered cylinders are typical of the class. Rocket's higher cylinder angle gave the locomotive an ungainly wobble as the pistons worked against the springs. The tender illustration is the prize however. It shows the same utility wagon used by the LMR, yet with a box, instead of a barrel. This is a generation 2 tender. Generation 1, the barrel arrangement; Generation 3, the purpose built tenders, like Lion and Tiger haveOther Generation 2 images will be found here, 2nd page:https://uk.hornby.com/community/forum/bee-what-do-you-think-about-rockets-tender-being-used-for-tigers-wagons-346757#post-346905Bee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
