Does anyone know where there are any drawings or other information for LBSC Terriers, as I'm intending to revive my project to build No. 662 Martello as a next gen style model.

Just wondered if anyone knew anything, Thanx.

Humm, there could be a few problems with that, I work at Bressingham, where Martello is housed, I just find it difficult to get there (too young, no transport, or camera) but I do know that due to, circumstances, Martello dropped the fuseable plug at the weekend amongst other problems.

I've heard that's big job, it's an area I never looked into.

EDIT: That was badly worded, I'd like to add it was no ones fault, it was due to serious unforeseen circumstance.

Usually I think they're easily replaced, if there are spares. Otherwise I hope it's ok, the Spa's already down to one steam loco atm, Jinty's having it's tubes done and Fonmon's motions brokern, dunno when it's gonna be back in traffic considering it's too small for the line and it's ticket expires next year.

I don't think any where's doing well at the moment then. Ah well, thanks for the book reference, I'll look for that right away.
