Kerr Stuart 'Sirdar' 0-4-0T in 7/8Ths Scale PRODUCT SHEET ACCUCRAFT UK LTD Kerr Stuart ‘Sirdar’ 0-4-0T in 7/8ths Scale Accucraft’s next locomotive in 7/8ths scale will be a model of the delightful Kerr Stuart ‘Sirdar’ 0-4- 0T Diana. Diana was built in 1909 by Kerr Stuart as part of an order for six 2′ 5 1⁄2″ gauge locomotives for Mauritius. Although several of the locomotives in the order were sent to Mauritius, Diana wasn’t delivered and stayed at Kerr Stuart’s factory in Stoke on Trent. It was rebuilt to 2′ gauge and passed through several hands until Phil Mason, a Talyllyn Railway volunteer, finished its restoration work at the Vale of Rheidol Railway before setting the engine to work on the Bala Lake Railway in Wales.

    Hampshire Area Garden Railway Group (Incorporating the Hampshire area of the Association of 16mm Narrow Gauge Modellers and the Southdown Railway Co.) Associate members of Fareham & District Model Railway Club July 2015 Hello Everyone: Here we go with the July 2015 Newsletter. Pretty short newsletter this month as I’ve been out playing trains in the sunshine. Aside from the progress on the CSLR which now boasts a complete circuit of the garden, ballasting and track fixing/fettling moves forwards and I’ve been able to run a steam train for the first time in 20 months. We travelled with a contingent to visit Ralf Műhlbichler and his 45mm gauge line, the photos show the variety of stock we were able to run. Ralf models in 7/8th’s scale and his engines and stock are therefore much modified but very finely detailed. The first picture shows his BO-BO diesel which features radio control and sound and you may be able to see in the picture that the driver in the cab always faces the direction of travel thanks to some clever servery and linkages. Ralf says the driver is very accommodating although he always answers questions with a “No”… You can also see a Regner 0-6-0 tender loco altered to suit 7/8th’s and detailed tipper cars made by Ralf for his feldbahn. This loco has a modified Regner boiler and burner to suit the model which took some work to get the burner stable but now produces plenty of steam. The visitors (ie us) took along examples of 1:22.5 scale in the form of a Regner Hartz 2-10-2 with detailed LGB/Chinese stock - these have had scale bogies and wheels fitted, the Chinese coaches being resprayed and custom decals applied.
