You're right, it's a 4wPH built by Nigel Tambling in 1999.

Good find Peter. I imagine the Tambling machine is now going to be abandoned! |

Interesting stuff, thanks for that Peter  I hope Duke of Cornwall does still see some use now that there is a new loco, though; it would be a shame to see it left to gather dust in a shed, like a certain other Severn-Lamb Western I could name...

Tim, looking at your Lappa Valley pix from last year, it seems the HST there has been rebuilt as a 4w-4PH, whereas they were normally 4-4wPH. I beleive the 10 1/4" N Tambling 1999 loco is now Dsm and its 8hp Briggs & Stratton may be in the APT loco. Cheers , Dave |

It was done in Rhyl next to the miniature railway years ago in the form of a 15" tramway..... |

http://www.lappavalley.co.uk/ A very nice, much needed new website for the railways. Doesn't mention all the locomotives, but makes interesting viewing now the less, with some new photos taken on a very sunny day! Am looking forward to visiting in August. Thanks Peter |
