        Hello to all, I am a newbie to EM and keen to get started. Roxey mouldings have told me that the society has crib sheets on RTR 00 to EM gauge data sheets detailing the wheel and gauge change process for most locos known to have been converted.  Is this correct and would anyone know how to access them please

          Just seen the listing on the website that lists a lot of loco conversions. Mr Roxey must have been referring to this section.

          Nothing though I could see on the Oxford Rail Dean Goods, which is the chassis I am working on at the moment.

          Can anyone suggest anything on what others have done with this loco?

           

          Any advice or pointers would be much appreciated

            There are also quite a few crib sheets on the Alan Gibson website (under downloads).  I have just taken a look and the only Oxford rail conversion is the Adams radial, which has 1/8” axles.  I have converted an Oxford N7, which had 2mm axles.  Fortunately the wheels were the same size as the J15 and Alan Gibson already produced a conversion pack for the Hornby J15, which also had 2mm axles.  I think your first move would be to carefully remove the keeper plate and measure the axle diameter before considering next steps.
