News and developments

We have recently delivered the QR 1720 models made again working with Wuiske models for Queensland. It can also count as a South African engine as some have been exported from Queensland to South Africa. It is available ready to run with a choice of liveries, original and driver only versions. All the usual features like DCC ready, flywheels, Kadee couplers, both 12mm and 16.5mm gauge available and just well all round greatness (we are not actually sure if anyone reads this far but we hope so)...

This was the third engine made together by us and Wuiske models and it is also the third to be delivered for this market by any manufacturer!

Our next export RTR product will be the WAGR/Westrail WO ore wagon to be released in the second half of 2017 although we hope to have samples on display at the Perth, WA AMRA show in early June 2017. These wagons will be available in packs of 6 wagons for A$295. We hope to have at least 4 packs of 6 wagons to choose from each with different numbers and also an un-numbered pack. These wagons are the perfect match for our L class WAGR/Westrail engines and have all the features you would expect from us like metal wheels, Kadee couplers, underframe detail, RTR and fully decorated.

The bogies for these are already available with wheels. A$9.95 a pair but need to be ordered with 6 or more pairs or with other products together.

In late 2016 we released NQR open wagons in 0n30 to match our "Puffing Billy" NA class engines. We hope to produce other  rolling stock in 2017 for several of the markets we have already produced for.

We also hope to follow this up with other rolling stock to match our NA "Puffing Billy" engines at some time in the future.

We have 0 gauge wheels for the NSW market available now. These are sold by Berg's Hobbies in Australia or direct from Taiwan for non-Australian customers.

We have also been working on some 5 inch gauge ride on trains for Taiwan which is keeping us busy of late.

The WAGR/Westrail L class was released in September 2015. A grain wagon made by Frateschi for us is now also available.

In February 2016 the Bi-centenial livery of the 2401 model was released with Wuiske models and sold out within days.

More information will be posted here as the products are near to completion.
