Hi there Kenneth,

If you don't mind my asking, what happened to the 0-4-0 Way BE loco that
they had for the 3.5" gauge line? (Actually out of interest do they still
have the 3.5" gauge 4-4-2 loco's - riding behind them as a child was my
inspiration for the current Maisie that I'm working on?).

If it is a 3.5" gauge electric loco that they are after, then I could
supply details of my own 3.5" gauge 0-4-0 battery electic loco. There are
no drawings for it, but I have long intended to put them to paper, and if
someone was interested in using them then that would be suitable
motivation.

The loco is to narrow gauge outline, has a sinclair C5 motor inside it,
and has in the past hauled three coach loads of people topping an
estimated half a tonne.

Let me know if you're interested.

Yours,


Rich.
