LISTER RAIL-TRUCK for MINIATURE / NARROW GAUGE [3S] (BODY ONLY) (O9 Gauge 7mm scale)

This is a 3D printed item, using a fine ABS like resin and is a complete body to create an O scale miniature railway loco (7mm / foot) running on 9mm track. It is as close to scale as I could get it whilst using the reliable KATO 109 chassis and you will receive the main body print and a replacement chassis motor "keeper" plate.

This engine is modelled on a loco running on a number of light railways and manufactured by the Lister Company.

Photo 1 is an example of the item as you will receive it. The next 4 photos are of a body mounted to the KATO chassis (motorised chassis and track are not included in the sale). These are genuine photos taken with a full frame 35mm SLR and not digital representations. 

To fit the body, you simply need to remove the two formers from the base, file / sand the bottom edge flat and it is ready to paint / fit to the chassis (available as an option) and add the couplings of your choice (not supplied).

The body is designed to run on a KATO 11-109 chassis (available as an option). The top chassis moulding needs to be removed (unclipped) from the chassis (see photo 5) and the replacement motor "keeper" (supplied) clipped into place (see photo 6). 

Slots have been included in the body to attach two standard Peco GR-102 or GR-105 009 couplings (not supplied), that slot neatly into the bodywork... with a twist!

The final photo shows the engine on the layout of the first customer to purchase one of these, ready to go to the paint shop (photo used with kind permission).

Bear in mind the size of these items when looking at the detail in the photos. The loco body is 48.3mm long (excluding the couplings and adhesion weights), 21.9mm wide and 26.0mm high (excluding the wheels).

This was originally commissioned by a customer who was looking to extend his O gauge railway to include a local community railway similar to the 15" and 18" estate railways of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
