Yep, thats right I've just bought a IP Engineering Lucy from Glendale Junction, for £79.96

The last one aswell I think, as they've just taken it of the website! Also got the 4wd Chain

And why it was soo cheap? Glendlke Junction have 20% off all IP stock, but there running out fast!

Also Lucy/Punch owners what are your general views? And any chance of a piccie of them?

Thanks

Punch No 2 'Ethel' was actually the first loco I bought & built for my line. Its good for trundling around with a couple of small coaches/waggons. Ive stuck a little velco to each side of the cab & one bit on the driver, so can swap him round when going in the other direction..

I think the fellow who made them called himself Middigate. They were around for two or three years, then disappeared. Theyre made of a heavy resin but you cant take the roof off to detail the interior, which is a shame. They sometimes pop up on ebay.

Thanks, think they look well proportioned for smaller locos in 16mm

Thanks
