It’s a cold day and the first free Iv had in a while so I’m just giving the Dora a quick run with my newly built SwiftSixteen coaches painted yellow with black frames.

Those coaches are nice. I love your paint scheme, or I suppose the common expression in the UK is livery. I have two of these Swift Sixteen coaches and really like them. Dora is a nice engine too. Perfect for the smaller sized wagons.

@@SteamTrainsNStuff awesome. I sometimes go back over your vids. Too bad they don’t make the Dora anymore.

@@Terrys-Steam-and-Cobi Thats a shame, I don't think they have been too popular here in the UK since they can't be regauged to 32MM.

@@SteamTrainsNStuff It seems that lots of people in the UK model in 32 mm. That’s fairly rare on this side of the pond. I emailed Accucraft to ask if there were planning another run and the answer is no because Accucraft and Aster merged and now all design and parts making is done in Japan not China (though assembly happens in China). They apparently don’t have the specs and the engine would have to be redesigned.

@@Terrys-Steam-and-Cobi 32MM is much closer to accurately representing in 16MM scale the famous narrow gauge railways of Ffestiniog, Talyllyn ect which is why it’s so popular. I didn’t know Accucraft had Merged with Aster.
