Friendly Builders,
I am building the 4" Burrell Showmans Scenic from STW and would like to find out how thick the various Coach lines are on the Engine.
Can anyone help me please?????????????
I look forward to hearing from someone soon,
Best wishes

One source of lining information is the 'Burrell Style 1900-1932' book by GFA Gilbert. It's not cheap but very interesting and gives all the lining widths and colours. I looked for an ISBN number but there doesn't appear to be one on the book. A good bookshop should be able to find it though. Hope it helps, Steve

The following diagrams will need scaling down as they are intended for full size.
hope they help.

This combination of colours was intended for Maroon or Green engines.
