HAHAHA id like to see u try, talking from experiecne here having built or taken part in the bulding of a couple of locos, Kettlefan will back me up here, Locos arent that easy to build, i wish you luck but i dont think you'll do it. some things to think about...

whos guan pay for it?

Where ya guan keep it? (The Great Cockcrow Railway wont want it before you ask)

Where ya guan get drawings for that are the right scale

Good luck but i dont think you'll do it!

I'm not following on this, is it:

- An idea for a 5 car 442 in 3 1/2", 5" or 7 1/4" gauge?
- An existing model in 3 1/2", 5" and 7 1/4" gauge?

When you say that pictures and videos are going to be available, does that not mean that you have a model working already?

7 1/4".

Stephen's bubblecar scaled down worked out at a length of 8ft!

On another note - IM COMING UP TO 444 POSTS!

 

[Tom]

...and 442 too!

Apparently it can be very easily zero'd.

Stephen's bubblecar scaled down worked out at a length of 8ft!

Thats y im not building it any more!

for a 442, Each coah would proably work out like this:

3 1/2" gauge: Each coach would be about 4 foot long but it would be uncomfortable to ride on it at both gourn level and rasied!

5": Each coach would be about 6 foot long, also not that comfortable for ride on at ground level noramlly caohes are made over scale so you can ride on them!

7 1/4" gauge: Each coach would be about 9 foot long, now if you have 5 coaches thats a 45 foot train, good luck with finding soem wherer to keep that! although its mroe comfortabel at ride on at that scale!!

 

[Nathan]

45ft! Guys i think you better clear us up on this...

Seeing at this topic is the right subject 442 posts!

 

[960012]

Yer come on, explain more, have you ever got drawings for it?

 

[class 313]

Nathen has hit 442 posts, someone freeze it before he gets to 444

I wanna see pictures of blueprints or is this all just bollox to get attention?

 

[Nathan]

443 and coming close now...

 

[5872]

You lot when I have pictures of the train I will post them , just to say stephen! It will be about 20 ft long on 7 1/4". It has now been decided that if we get permisson from the railway we are building to we will make the bodys of the coaches and replace there fleet of 4 coaches and and build new bodys but keeping the original Passenger coach chassis so we would have a 442 and bogies + chassy and a comfty ride

 

[Nathan]

Right that makes more sense, existing chassis that you will replace the bodies. Except there are only 4... looks like a 450 then

 

[960012]

just to say stephen! It will be about 20 ft long on 7 1/4".

Not it wont, each coah must be 9 foot long to be scale there are 5 coaches in a pig and 9 time 5 is 45, im in top set maths, and if u translate 23 metres into feet its 75 ish, devide that by 8 which is the scale for 7 1/4" u get 9 foor per carriage! i think i should know i did the drawins for the bubble car!

Okay but It sadly it might have to be a 4WES but this will include the following:
Scream
Horn
DTSO
DTSO
TSO
MBRSM
and will still be like a pig just minus the 2nd TSO:glasses5:

 

[Nathan]

Or a 450

Where are u getting the coaches from to build the new bodies?

 

[5872]

Where are u getting the coaches from to build the new bodies?

The coaches are coming from a railway that is replacing there bodys and we have offered to make new 1s we are finding out about it

 

[Nathan]

Think what you like stephen Im telling the truth! I was only asking which would or could be easyer on cab shape because 442 is a striaght end 444 and 450 have long curved ones:grommit:

 

[Nathan]

Regardless if you put the time and effort into it then its not a problem.

 

[5872]

Well the prob is some ways 442 is easy to do but others 450s and 444s are!

 

[Nathan]

Hard to say what is more difficult

 

[960012]
