Peppercorn Class A1

[levisham]

Does anyone have a dimensioned drawing of a Peppercorn Class A1 double chimney that is lipped? I dislike that ugly stovepipe thing it has. Done a few searches but not turned up anything suitable, so far.

Regards, John.

Sorry John! That is a Gresley A1 before they were rebuilt to A3's...............
This is the best I've turned up so far. I've seen reskinned A1's on UKTS with lipped chimneys so some must have a few dimensions they could share?

You can contact the NRM for a copy
I only have the 1943 Loco Drawings book

Which only has these locos in +all the other regions !

There is another website selling loco drawings, if I remeber it, I'll post it.
Cheers John

There are two other sources I have looked at: Isinglass who want give me the whole loco drawing, for more shekels than I am willing to part with, when I only want the double chimney and the F.J.Roche book Historic Loco Drawings, which I have, but shows the Peppercorn A1 with the ugly stovepipe chimney.

John, I want the dimensions of the lipped double chimney for Tornado, I presume it is the same as the BR ER chimney, so that I can apply it to the variants that Neil Cunningham did for Cambridgeshire Lines. If you can help further I'd appreciate it,

Regards, John.
