Hi,

Does anyone know if any drawings or construction articles have been published for the GWR ”City’ class locos. I know that 3 1/2 ones exist but I’m interested in 5″ and would rather not scale them. I’m aware of Keith Wilson’s ‘Bulldog’ but there are quite a large number of differences

Many thanks

Phil

p.s. I see in the current issue that David remarks that the drawings archive contains many unpublished plans – any chance these might be in there somewhere?

Try ‘Practical Scale’ at Polly Model Engineering.I might be wrong but I think that Peter Rich may have produced a design for this class in 5″ gauge,and Peter Rich’s drawings are now available through Polly Model Engineering.Perhaps best to email them to see what they have.
