Hello,
Another new Locolines kit, based on the 0-6-0 Kerr Stuart diesel (often refered to as the Stephenson's Rocket of diesel locos), even though the model is an 0-4-0 and suitably proportioned to this wheel arrangment I looks to be another great model from locolines. £25 inc. chassis may I add, already ordered mine!
http://www.locolines.net/kits.htm#KERR_ ... 4-0_DIESEL
On an equally high note, this is the forum's 6000th post, another milestone hit!

You have so many un-built locos I have lost count, why not build some?

So true, so true. It's getting to the rally season thought when all the steam toys take front seat over the railway stuff

You could easily build one Locolines kit in a evening or two, provided you manage your time well and have the correct tools.

Bog standard, made my own spacers between the gearbox and chassis for the 32mm Whickham chassis, and with the 45mm Ivor chassis I only had to make new spacers for between the gearbox.
