engine kits - these
are the ultimate super kits for a serious modeller - precision made for
a museum like quality finish |
 |
Cast
in a high quality metal
alloy, these models may be assembled using two part epoxy, superglue or
a combination of the two. Each kit comes complete with detailed
instructions and photographs showing stage by stage assembly, also full
exploded diagrams. The aim has been to produce a museum type static
model incorporating every possible detail and also a model which has a
real investment value.
The size of the Traction Engine is approximately 6 1/2" long by 4 1/4"
high and the weight around 1 1/4 lbs. The Foden type "C" Wagon is 8
3/4" long and weighs 1 3/4 Ibs, while the Foden "K" is of course
proportionally larger. The kits come complete with lettering and lining
transfers and also where appropriate "rubber" tyres and etched brass
components. All that is required to complete the models are paint and
adhesives.
The kits are packed in a stout box, with a colour picture on the lid of
the completed model. Construction falls into five basic sequences,
Tender, Boiler, Wheels, Motion and final assembly. Each part is
categorised and annotated in its relevant section by number, i.e. T1,
T2, etc. It may prove helpful if each part is checked against the
drawing and the parts sorted into their respective groups. It is very
important that the correct sequence is followed during assembly,
otherwise it may not be possible to complete the model. Therefore
careful study of the instructions is recommended before building
commences.
