Anyone Built the HUSH HUSH?

There was an article on building in in MRJ, about 2 years ago (I think) mine are in storage at the mo so I can't check issue number until later, Ithink its about 138.

thanks very much - hopefully someone will be able to confirm so I can get a copy.

Somebody in my club had one built to order and has one hell of a problem getting it to run on anything other than straight track. The min radius on the club layout is about 5 feet and it struggles on that.

I've had a look through my MRJs, and I think the article estarriol was referring to was in MRJ 146, where a very brave Bob Merry took a razor saw to a 7mm scale Martin Finney resin bodyshell to produce the rebuilt W1. A nice model, but perhaps not the article you're looking for.

The Third MRJ Compendium has an article by Tim Shackleton on building the 4mm South Eastern Finecast kit.

Apart from that there are some articles in Model Railway Constructor from the early Seventies.

There's a layout that's shown on the North-East exhibition circuit that has one in OO as a static display (I don't recall having ever seen it run). I can't remember the name of the layout off the top of my head, but it was a freelance steelworks. The Hush Hush was displayed in an area of the layout presumably meant to represent a preservation society (nothing more than an engine shed).

I believe the owner may be a member of the Hackworth Society MRC (Shildon).
