Hello all you kind & friendly people out there ;D,
(you can tell I want something can't you ;D)

I've recently acquired a Keystone Loco Works unmade H0n 21/2 shay, c/w NWSL powering kit which seems to be complete apart from the NWSL instruction booklet which is missing pages 7,8,9 & 10. I've tried pleading with OSO Rail ( NWSL's new owners) but have had no response to several e-mails :(.

Anybody have or know of anyone with one who would be kind enough to e-mail, post or carrier pigeon copies to me?
All reasonable expenses paid of course (with a limit on poundage of bird seed!)

Hopeful thanks,

Ken

Have a look at this link Ken;

http://www.datamasta.co.nz/hon30/nwsl_keystone.htm

some useful tips on various improvements that can be made, particularly to the truck mouldings, to make it easier to get a running loco.  The links from that page are useful too!

I have something like 2/3 rds of 2 of the powering kits  (along with a complete body kit and most of a second)  I really must get around to ordering the bit to make them whole (and I know I should have done it about 6 months ago when the exchange rate was better!)

I don't recall their being a booklet, but I do have an instruction sheet which I can scan if I could have your e-mail address (please send a note to me on julien.webb@virgin.net).  I'll have to find it though, so it may take a little time.

Just wanted to avoid any wasted time for anyone, Julien has very kindly (and extremely rapidly!) sorted the info I needed so thanks to anybody else who may be searching but you can stop now! :D

Live long & prosper
