Hi all
There was a thread not long ago with 2 of his creations pictured I should have made a note but stupidly did not thought they would make fantastic models, can anyone help please.

It's really frustrating – I saw an article in an ME the other day (about 7 years old?) where someone reminisced about seeing the Emmett-designed locos at the festival of Britain as a child. Apparently they were diesel hydraulic? One was a 'fantasy steam loco', one was an airship and the third a 'paddle steamer'.

A Google search for Rowland Emmett will turn up plenty about him **LINK** and the Far Tottering and Oyster Creek Railway. **LINK**

I thank you very much absolutely what I was after, After finishing the B1 I am thinking of doing a madcap train and I saw them. I have built a number of loco's and wanted to design something wakky

Good luck Bob,

Someone once made an 'Emmetich' which was aTich with raised boiler and added decoration. LBSC was approving.

You must follow suit and provide pictures!

Could you please look at my response to Neil, and have a look at the links he gave me, I was spelling the name wrong in my Google searches. I have also PM'd you. I also have replied to your PM.

Have a great Christmas and a happy new year everyone.

Looking forward to seeing your Emmett-inspired creation.
