Beattie Well Tank - Help !

Dec 20, 2005 2 Replies

Could anyone please help with a drawing of 30586 (3329) or photos of same. Now the long dark nights are here I have a couple of kits to build one with the round splashers and one the square splashers. Both kits have pretty dire chassis frames which dont lend themselves to easy conversion to compensated chassis



TIA - Eddie


Are these the Falcon kit? ISTR Iain Rice had words to say on the subject in MRJ 159.

If these are the Falcon (ex-Jidenco) kits, then from everything I've heard they are best used to build a model of your prototype using the etches as a basis, rather than using the etches to build a kit. This might well mean making your own frames or buying profile-milled frames from Alan Gibson.

I think there was a drawing in Railway Modeller some years back. I'll see if I can dig it out.
