For simplicity and reliability I'd say pot boiler. If meths fired you can get nice long runs.

Thanks muchly!

Easy mistake to make!

Indeed, well myself and my mate stood next to me arent Home Guard(but the others are), were both regular Infantry!

Myself centre row.

Glad you enjoyed it Matt, i used to attend but accomodation is getting difficult for this event now, here's a photo of how i usually go!

i have my eye on a copy of boyd's book on ebay.

Dont yet have a copy of boyd's book which covers the NWNGR, but was just wondering what pattern (if any) of slate wagons did they use, was the design completely unique or was it simular to anything on the FR?

Tried that, doesn't work.....shall just have to try selling mother...

Accucraft "Welshpool & Llanfair" sheep wagon.

i had an archangel once, sadly i sold it and have regretted it to this day!

That little wonder has really got my cravings going, one of those in Meths fired would make me a very happy man!

just out of interest, whats the minimum radius the little wonder will do, and how much did it cost?

They look good, kind of wish i had the cash spare!

ive always thought the caradoc the best looking of accucrafts generic range, indeed i owned one once but i sold it to someone on the IOM as i disliked the gas fired howl!

email already sent!

The chassis are, afaik, the same so shouldn't be too much hassle, was thinking more about the water tanks etc.

Nobody?

acme do a nice gardner engine sound for the accucraft diesels, think id go for one of them.
nice model though, very nice!

Anyone tried converting a Caradoc to coal firing using a DJB kit?
Looking at it simply the Ragleth one should fit?
