 | Feanor 4wdm Loco Kit Ref: FEN001
This is an actual prototype loco and is in use at the Leighton Buzzard railway. It was built by Motor Rail and then bought by British Industrial Sands Ltd., Middleton Towers, Norfolk in 1956, but re bodied in 2001. Motor Rail was a British locomotive building company, based in Bedford. Formed in 1911 as The Motor Rail & Tramcar Co Ltd they built petrol and diesel engined locomotives, mainly narrow gauge. During World War I over 900 locos were supplied for use on temporary military supply railways. The trade name Simplex was used from the early days; in 1972 the company was renamed Simplex Mechanical Handling Ltd. In 1987 loco manufacture ceased, business being transferred to Alan Keef Ltd of Ross-on-Wye, who continue to provide spares and have built several locos to Motor Rail designs.
This loco has been developed using very modern CAD, CAM, and CNC processes. The kits are complete with all that you need to complete including motor chassis battery box etc. They are manufactured out of plasticard which has been machined to size leaving small tabs that you can press out and glue with MEK . These models are then embellished with the whitemetal detail included in the kit, that also contains the chassis wiring and switches etc. This model is complete and just requires glue and paint.
