Title: L&M 2-6-4 tank engine chassis help
Post by: kingfisher on May 04, 2014, 21:44
Hi fellow 009ners, I am trying to use a chassis for my 2-6-4 L&M tank engine  I was thinking of useing RT models parts but I am not sure which ones to choose or go for any help? I did try a Kato chassis but I did not like the way it was run as it had a tendice to lean around curvers that was not tight for the loco,

I see no one has mentioned to you on here Ted Polet's tale of how he built his L&M Kitson. Suggest you have a look at it on p3 of this locomotives section on the forum.

Hi There , not sure if you are still trying this idea. I too have an unbuilt L&M model and was thinking of using the ROCO outside frame chassis as this seems quite a good match. Alternatively, as mentioned in this thread RT models offer the complete kit for use with the Farish outside frame diesel chassis  If you call or email Robert at RT I'm sure he would be pleased to help you. He's a very helpful chappie . Good luck.
