Hi all.
It's the longest of long shots, but I'm looking for a couple Rod's Ruston locos for my latest project. I know I'm probably being wildly optimistic, but if you have one (or more) that you could be persuaded to move on to a new home then please let me know.
I've never seen one come up on the secondhand sales, but if you have one (or more) lurking in a cupboard I will happily cross your palm with silver.
Thanks for looking.
Take care and Merry Christmas everyone.
You should have been at the Statfold 50th anniversary do as I saw one on the sales stand, not that it was there very long (and no, it didn't come home with me!).
My understanding is that Neville Kent at N-Drive Productions has obtained the rights to these from Rod's estate. It might be worth contacting Neville to see what the situation is.
www.n-driveproductions.com is his website but it doesn't seem to be connection at the moment...
Cheers Julian.
I was at Statfold but didn't spot it unfortunately!
I've been chatting with Neville about things and he's intending to get it back in production sometime next year. All the usual caveats apply of course.
I'm still hoping I might be able to tempt fellow members to part with a couple in the short term if possible. I'm working on the principle of "if you don't ask you'll never find out" and all that...
Cheers.
PS - apologies for the sense of déjà vu (we've had the same conversation over at the other place!)

I did wonder if there was a glitch in the matrix :-D
