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?

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

the coaches are from Newdigate models owned by Micheal Thacker. He lives in elsecar and to my knowledge still has the moulds
