Locoworks running boards re: Roundhouse 0-4-0 frames

[Keith S]

Does anyone know if the frames are the same for Roundhouse's "Jack", "Katie" and "Billy"? I rather think they are, but can't be sure. The reason I ask is that I have been contemplating building running boards for my "Billy" locomotive and I see that Locoworks is offering them for the other Roundhouse 0-4-0s. I suspect they will also fit on my engine but would like to be sure. On the Roundhouse website the locomotives do look like they use the same plate frames.

Thanks. I think the Katie and Jack running boards are the same, therefore they should fit Billy. I'll order a pair and see.

I've just received an E-Mail from Locoworks. Soon, they will be releasing a range of detail parts for "Billy". I intend to order the running boards and the lubricator parts along with some hex-head buffer beam bolts. I'm quite impressed with how quickly my query on their website was answered.
