Regners new, thing...

Post by Dr. Bond of the DVLR » Sun Jan 17, 2010 11:53 am

And it doesn't have a dirty name!!
Fossily (fossil fuels) is the new easy line loco with grate and ashpan to run on coal!
Bit like willy but with more bits and blobs for coal firing and a HUGE boiler!
see what you think...

Looks erm, interesting! The price is a little offputting at nearly 2000 euros...

That's about £1750 currently.

It does look cool, some strange controls on it like the big lever next to the driver for the firebox door latch, so that would HAVE to be modified :lol:

Fired on wood too? Now is that a first for 16mm?

Dont know, It all looks a bit messy really, me grandad went to the new "Sinsheim" (its been moved) and saw regners stand, It looked pretty bare apparently and Hare regners looking pretty tired and old now.
I think regner might be winding down in a few years.

I like it, but that isn't exactly cheap, especially when you look at the price of an Edrig coal conversion kit.
