This is a 3D printed item, using a fine ABS like resin and is a complete body to create an O scale model of the "big" Simplex 32/42HP locomotive without a cab as manufactured by Motor Rail (7mm / foot) running on 16.5mm track.

This was commissioned by a customer who was looking to extend their O9 gauge railway. We have now introduced it as an O16.5 loco as well. 

The kit includes the main body only which is ready to paint and fit to the chassis (not supplied) and add the couplings of your choice (not supplied).

Photo 1 shows an example of the item as you will receive it. Photos 2 to 6 are of the body mounted onto a Tenshodo 24.5mm wheelbase chassis with 10.5mm disc wheels (not supplied). The 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. 
 
The body is designed to run on a modified Tenshodo 24.5mm wheelbase chassis with 10.5mm disc wheels (not supplied). The chassis requires the extended axles to be removed. It then simply clips into the body (see photo 5).

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!

Bear in mind the size of this items when looking at the detail in the photos. The loco body is scaled using measurements of the real Simplex and is approximately 65mm long, 34 wide and 31.0mm high (from the top of the rails).

It will be dispatched with Royal Mail 2nd Class with suitable protective packaging.
