  1. When I change my rolling stock that plastic wheels for metal wheels, if it has 3 hole plastic wheels, I fit it has 3 hole metal wheels. If it has spoked plastic wheels, I fit it with 3 hole metal wheels. This nears the originality of the coach / wagon.

     

    Also, plastic wheels do not run as well, as the metal wheels. I have also noticed over the many years of being in the hobby, that the plastic wheels makes the track dirty faster, than metal wheels do.

  3. Is that the only Class 9F that you own in your model railway collection, Ratch. I own a Class 9F; Hornby Thomas & Friends R9684 Murdoch.

  4. old muddler, welcome to the Hornby Forum.  😀

     

    As for Flying Scotsman, a lot of the Hornby RailRoad locomotives do not come with front couplings.

     

    Richard II locomotive has to be the Hornby standard range model, as I can't remember ever seeing that as an RailRoad release. I have found R3370TTS, an Digital TTS (Twin Track Sound) Richard II locomotive, via Google search. I assume this is the locomotive you have Eric (old muddler)?
