HIGHLY DETAILED OO9 SCALE MODEL KIT
Peckett and Sons 0-6-0ST - "THE PECKETT" or "HARROGATE"
This is a detailed scale model kit for adult collectors. Not for children under 14 years old.
This model kit is of Peckett and Sons locomotive "The Peckett" or "Harrogate", built in 1944 for the Harrogate Gasworks Railway. This 2' gauge machine was built to a very tight loading gauge, necessitated an almost half-mile long tunnel which was only 9' tall. The locomotive has been preserved, and was given a larger cab, and is now at the Statfold Barn Railway.
Two versions of the model are available:
c1944 - As built for the Harrogate Gasworks Railway, with low cab and no continuous brake equipment.
c2020 - As running on the Statfold Barn Railway, with raised cab and both air and vacuum brake equipment.
The model comes with a static chassis for display, and can be motorised with a Graham Farish Class 08 Shunter Chassis (outside framed version - either non-DCC or DCC-ready). The model includes all parts required to assemble outside motion, including accurate replacement flycranks. You will need modelling tools (such as a craft knife, cutting board, files and micro-drills) adhesive, paints and ballast material (such as Liquid Gravity) to assemble the kit.
This is a highly detailed scale kit built using our in house machines, with High Definition resin and build layers just 50 microns (0.05mm) thick. Whilst there is 'stepping' visible on the parts up close, this is not discernible once the kit is painted and/or from usual viewing distances. The parts have their main supports removed, though detailing and structural supports will remain to protect the parts in transit, and require removing prior to assembly. Some polishing and filing of the parts is required to ensure they fit together without a seam. Clear (and varnished) resin windows are included, though you may wish to use clear plastic sheet (not included) if preferred.
NEM OO9 couplings are included, along with etch brass motion, brass body panels, pony wheelset and etch works plates.
This model uses re-engineered CAD from our main model range, to optimise the kit building experience. Details include:
