I have prints 1-6 and 13. I would have to pull them to see exactly what those prints are though.

Re: LE 1" scale Saddle Tank 0-4-0
did you try Mike V at LITTLE ENGINES?????
Too many things going on to bother listing them.
Re: LE 1" scale Saddle Tank 0-4-0
Bill I know for a fact that Mike has none of the 1" LE stuff. It was sold to a Russell Stewart in PA, and to my knowledge, he has put it all in a barn, and done nothing with the castings, plans, or anything with any of it. Mike has even offered to buy it, but Russell says no. I actually have called and talked to his wife, and I got nowhere.Bill Shields wrote:did you try Mike V at LITTLE ENGINES?????
We should all dig into out files, try to make a central LE small scales Library available for all of us. I am totally bothered by the fact that all of the small scale LE stuff is disappearing... sad very saf

you might want to try asking Mike Again. He has been collecting what 1" STUFF is available. I sent him a copy of my 1" 0-4-0 Drawings a year ago.

Re: LE 1" scale Saddle Tank 0-4-0
Not just the 1" stuff... Little Engines had a good selection of plans and castings in 3/4" scale, 1/2" scale, and even 1/4" scale (O gauge). All of it has just disappeared. Talked to Mr. Stewart about 4-5 years ago about ordering some 1/2" scale 2 1/2" gauge castings for some trucks/couplers. That's the last time I talked to him. Hasn't returned calls or e-mails since then. I've pretty much given up on being able to get any of that stuff now.

Same here. I would like to get some driver castings but I am stuck trying to rework the drivers I have, hoping that I don't mess them up in the process... We will see how my luck holds up.

All the 1" "Iron Pony" locomotives, cars, track designed by the Devlin brothers in CA was a big loss too. Lost in Canada to a dentist after he lost interest in "Riding Railkits", I think he called it?

Re: LE 1" scale Saddle Tank 0-4-0
My recent conversation with Mike V was that he does not have any 1" driver castings of that size.
I got some from John at Friends (Dinky model castings) that came out at just under 4" OD finished.
Reeves in the UK has plenty of many varieties - but may not match what you have / want.

I should have clarified. I'm looking for (4) pacific drivers.Bill Shields wrote:My recent conversation with Mike V was that he does not have any 1" driver castings of that size.

Re: LE 1" scale Saddle Tank 0-4-0
I thought this thread was about drawings for an 0-4-0 1" scale saddle tank?
To continue the hijack, yes, it is a shame that all of the 1" stuff from LE and others has disappeared.

And technically the Little Engines 0-4-0 is not a "saddle" tanker. It is a side or pannier tank locomotive. A saddle tank is one unit that crosses over the top of the boiler like a saddle....hence the name.
