GWR Castle or King 5" models

Oct 12, 2006 2 Replies

Although I have about twenty projects large and small that nee



attention I'm starting to think about a biggee. I'd like to make a 5 GWR Castle (or King), but I can't find a kit from the usual supplier (Reeves, Blackgates, Brunell). There seem to be plenty of designs fo other GWR classes, including tanks, Saints and Manors, but nothing fo Castles and Kings. Given the iconic status of these locos I'm sur there must be something out there, just can't locate it.



Reeves do a 7.25" King, but it really is a monster and the casting alone cost seven grand.



Any ideas

GLR advertise a "King John" - AGWR 4-6-0. Does that fit the bill?
