Errors!

Some of the well-known published designs contain errors.
These can cause builders expense as well as the frustration of making parts which then do not fit together.
Whilst the following information is believed to be accurate, it would be prudent to use it as an indication of possible problems and verify it yourself.
In addition, some of the older designs can benefit by changes
to bring them up to date.
Some such information is also included.

The success of this section will depend upon the
information which I receive.
If YOU know of errors in a design,
please send me an email with full details.

INDEX.



LOCOMOTIVES.- up to and including 3 ½" GAUGE

LOCOMOTIVES.- 5" GAUGE

LOCOMOTIVES.- 7 ¼" GAUGE AND OVER


TRACTION ENGINES, ROLLERS,  AND
OTHER ROAD VEHICLES.


OTHER STEAM ENGINES

I.C. ENGINES, WORKSHOP EQUIPMENT ETC

All the errors listed are those that have been found, and reported to me,  by builders of the models
concerned.

Whilst the majority are actual mistakes on drawings, some may be due to minor manufacturing mistakes or differences in components, or even drawings.
(Some people might be working from magazine articles rather than the full size drawings, for example.)

So, please take these as a guide and check first on your own drawings &  model.

If YOU  are building or have built a model and have found mistakes on the drawings, please let me know, so that other builders can avoid the same mistakes.
