.....Mrs PT's Christmas prezzie, the Dapol 87xx (with Youchoos Sound) and my Christmas prezzie, the Master Piece Models 45xx

Lovely locos.Great result for you both. No squabling over who controls which one now

The 45 is a stunner.

Thanks both.

You should have seen Sue's face when she opened hers! It was a picture! She was soooo pleased, all the unwrapping stopped and we had to go and give it a run.

Very nice... While you are there with your lovely locos, will they turn in a space of just 6ft? Someone is asking on another post.

Hi MG, yes they will, Heyside as 6' curves but this is considered to be the smallest practical size for turns.

John

Diameter or radius? He is mentioning diameter by the looks of it.

Diameter bud

Quote from a very experienced kit builder and manufacturer about a W1 he makes...….The model will go round 6 ft radius curves....just. If you want to get it round tighter, you're on your own!

Just joined so reading through threads. Love the 45....As WTD mentioned.
