54 - a "Dave Frary/Brick Price" loco which runs on a Lifelike SW9/1200 chassis. An etched brass kit awaiting construction. (One day I will brave enough to pick up my soldering iron).

56 & 59 - A pair of smallish (28-tonne)
Baldwin (that's E.M.Baldwin, not the famous US loco builder) bogie locos.
These will be used on lighter duties on the DBT. Like the EIMCO,
the bodies are from Queensland, the castings
being produced in a collaboration between Peter Ford and Tom Badger
, assembled by David Rowe and then painted
by Peter Knife. The locos are in the "shops" for final detailing,
installation of couplers and decoders. The mechanism is that from the
LifeLike SW9/1200. |

9 - another E.M.Baldwin, this is a 6-wheel
shunting loco. This loco, the body of which is a casting produced by
the same guys in Queensland, will run on a Bemo 6-wheel loco which comes
complete with outside frames and a jack-shaft drive. This photo shows
the original model and the cast body. Obviously there is painting and
detailing needed, before installing a decoer and couplers. It should
be an "interesting" project. It will look wonderful "waddling"
along the track. |
