Ffestiniog Linda drawings

Post by DLRdan » Tue Sep 29, 2015 8:18 pm

Does anyone know where i can find a reasonably detailed drawing for this loco in its later form. I'm currently doing up a model for a friend and they would like it in its mid 90's guise. I've been going of pictures so far but its getting rather tricky !

Best I've got are the plans from Railway Modeller April 1993, it does have the later stovepipe chimney that Lynda was fitted with. Would they be useful?

They would be vary useful, if you could scan them in that would be great.

pm me an email address and I'll send them on, they are large TIFF files so no loss of detail (320MB total).

If they are over 10mb files you might struggle getting them through on a number of email systems? Just a thought. :shock:

Use a dropbox? or upload to the cloud?

I shrunk the images in the end, the originals were halfway to being 16mm/ft. I'd scanned it in a while ago with the intention of converting it to a vector graphic and scaling up that way (I like working from 1:1 plans) hence the high resolution and large size. I'm sure I'll get around to making the model eventually but now my priority is to finish laying the track if I get time :)
