**NEW** Tom Rolt - due August 2010
The prototype was designed at the Talyllyn Railway Pendre works, and built using parts from a 1948 Barclay 3' gauge locomotive as well as many new items. The project took over 20 years to complete and the loco entered service in 1991 as No.7, TOM ROLT. It is named after the transport history and engineering author, L. T. C. Rolt who inspired the rescue of the Talyllyn Railway by volunteers and was the TR's first general manager after preservation.
In the last 19 years, the loco has undergone a number of minor changes and this model is based on the engine as originally built.
As far as possible, all major dimensions are to scale for 16mm/1ft however, to ensure that performance and reliability are to their usual high standard, some compromises have been made in the cylinder and valve gear proportions.
Technical specifications for Tom Rolt
0-4-2 inside framed chassis with two double acting slide valve cylinders operated by simplified Walschaerts valve gear.
Internal gas firing using our 'FG' type burner.
Controls fitted as standard are :- steam regulator, safety valve, pressure gauge, displacement lubricator, water gauge, gas regulator and reversing gear.
Water gauge and top-up system fitted as standard.
Overall dimensions are :- length (over buffers) 300mm, width (over handrails) 98mm, height 136mm, weight 2.75kg ( with r/c).
Full radio control is available for both speed and direction.
Gauge is not adjustable but the model is available in both 32mm and 45mm gauge versions. Minimum radius on 32mm gauge is 2’ 6” and for 45mm gauge, it is 2’ (LGB R1) .
Supplied with both standard Roundhouse center buffers plus, hook coupling and buffers as per Talyllyn railway (as illustrated).
Insulated wheels fitted as standard.
Available in any standard Roundhouse colour.
45mm gauge version.
In order to accommodate the wider gauge, a separate, wider chassis is used on the 45mm gauge version. This causes the cylinders to protrude beyond the side tanks and buffer beams, but are still within the overall loading gauge width, measured over the cab side handrails. Also, the rear chassis beneath the cab is made wider to allow the rear truck to swing on curves.
All of the superstructure is the same for both 32mm and 45mm versions and is to scale for 16mm:1ft. The wider chassis is not used on 32mm gauge locomotives and is a necessary compromise to offer a 45mm gauge version, but may not look right to some eyes. £1420 manual & £1595 R/C - available August 2010.

JACK |
Roundhouse have received many requests for the 'Jack' locomotive which they ceased producing in 1998 and they are producing a limited run of this model. The first batch will be scheduled for spring 2010 with the second in the summer.
The model will be built to it's original specification, i.e. no water top-up system, water gauge etc and will retail at £1303.00 for the R/C version and £1108.00 for manual.
A couple of images of the loco are shown below. If you are interested then please let us know asap.

The Campbeltown & Machrihanish Light Railway was a 2' 3" gauge line that ran six miles across
the Kintyre Peninsular on Scotland's west coast. It was built originally to carry coal from the mines
to the port of Campbeltown and later, goods and passenger traffic were added. The railway had
five locomotives over its 26 year history, the first three being small 0-4-0 and 0-4-2 engines. In
1906, Andrew Barclay Sons & Co. built a new 0-6-2 side tank locomotive for the line named
'Argyll' and the following year, a sister engine named 'Atlantic'. These were pretty large engines by
narrow gauge standards and were an impressive sight in their Gamboge livery, hauling the
elaborate balcony ended, panelled bogie coaches. Both loco's operated up to the closing of the
railway and were finally cut up in 1935.
Technical specifications for 'Atlantic'.
* Internal gas firing using our ‘FG’ type burner.
* Fully sprung 0-6-2 outside framed chassis with two double acting slide valve cylinders
operated by simplified Walschaerts type valve gear
* Water top-up system and water gauge.
* Controls fitted as standard are :- steam regulator, safety valve, pressure gauge, displacement
lubricator, gas regulator and reversing gear.
* Glazed cab windows.
* Dimensions are (loading gauge), Length 375mm, Width 115mm, Height 160mm
* Weight 4 Kg. (with Radio Control fitted).
* Full radio control is available for both regulator and reversing valve gear using 2.4GHz R/C.
* A gauge conversion kit is available separately to allow changing between 32mm and 45mm
gauge. Please state gauge when ordering
* Fitted with insulated wheels as standard.
* Available in any standard ROUNDHOUSE colour.

Taliesin is a single Fairlie running on the Ffestiniog Railway in North Wales. Although the original locomotive was built in 1876 by the Vulcan Foundry, our model is based on the re-build/new-build, constructed at Boston Lodge, that entered service in 1999.
The FR Fairlies, both single and double, have always attracted a lot of interest due to their unusual appearance and the fact that they are articulated locomotives.
The articulated front power bogie enables this relatively long engine to operate on small radius curves with minimum overhang.
This detailed model captures the look of these distinctive engines and has the usual Roundhouse performance that customers have come to expect.
Technical specifications
0-4-4 single Fairlie with two double acting slide valve cylinders operated by Roundhouse inside valve gear.
Internally gas fired using our ‘FG’ type system.
Controls fitted as standard are :- steam regulator, safety valve, pressure gauge, displacement lubricator, water gauge, boiler top up valve and gas regulator.
Two channel radio control fitted as standard for both speed and direction.
Available in all standard Roundhouse colours.
Available for 32mm or 45mm gauge (not adjustable).
Dimensions are :- length 342mm, width 113mm, height 134mm,
Please note :- Insulated wheels are available on this model and, it is available for either 32mm or 45mm gauge, but is not adjustable between the two so please state gauge when ordering. |

Arch bar bogie kits.
Roundhouse are re-introducing their kits for the arch bar bogies as used on the Fowler tender. These consist of cast white metal frames with brass axle bushes and steel disc wheels. These will be RSB03 for 32mm gauge and RSB04 for 45mm gauge.
Available in sets of two bogies, complete with wheels.

Electronic speed controller.
They have had many requests for the speed controller as used in Criccieth Castle and are now offering this as a home builder part. It is an r/c controller for speed and direction and includes a directional lighting circuit. |

dummy combination levers, glazed spectacles, copper capped chimney,
ornate polished brass steam dome, opening smoke box door and a whole

Criccieth
Castle It is the first in their
new range of battery powered diesel outline locomotives. The engine
was built at Boston Lodge for the Ffestiniog Railway from parts
supplied by Baguley—Drewry and entered service in 1995. The
model has been designed and built to be equal in performance to
their steam models. It features a beefy motor and drive-train and
at almost 3 kg is quite a heavyweight with performance to match.
It will pull the heaviest trains at realistic speeds and keep going
for several hours.
Make it something extra special with the optional onboard sound
system.
Hear the engine start up when you switch the loco on and sit there
with the engine ticking over. Open the throttle and the engine sound
increases with the speed of the loco. Hear the air brakes operate
or the horn sound as you press a third switch on the transmitter.
Technical specifications for 'Criccieth Castle'.
* 0-6-0 outside framed chassis with high quality Buhler motor and
precision made steel and bronze gear set.
* Fitted with full radio control for both speed and direction (and
sound if fitted).
* Rechargeable NiMh batteries (8 on loco) for excellent running
time, complete with fast charger for in-situ charging.
* Directional head lights and colour side lights
* Gauge adjustable between 32mm and 45mm gauge.
* Insulated wheels as standard.
* Fully glazed windows and removable roof to access detailed interior.
* Available with optional sound system featuring realistic engine
start up and running plus air brakes and horn all operable from
r/c handset.
* Dimensions are :- length 275mm, width 110mm, height 150mm, weight
2.92 kg.
