Hi all,
There's plenty of information elsewhere on Rumney Models releases but I thought I'd try and draw some attention to what I have got in the larger scales as it may get drowned out with all the 4mm stuff I do.
So only just released in 7mm scale are accurate plates for United Dairies & Unigate milk tanks. There are two types of United Dairies plates with different styles of lettering and Unigate plates which include the wagon number on them.
The United Dairies plates could be seen on wagons from the early 50s right through to the end of milk traffic in the 70s though rather less so after the 1959 merger of United Dairies, Aplin & Barrett and Cow & Gate into Unigate.
The Unigate plates are suitable for post 1959 milk tanks. Plates have been etched with numbers for almost every Unigate diagram though not in great quantities. Please enquire before ordering if you are after something specific.
The 7mm plates are £3.50. The price is per pair and they come already painted.
All three versions are also available in 4mm scale.
I also do the distinctive United Dairies GWR/SR milk tank platforms in 7mm scale as a detaling kit. They replicate the prototype in close detail and come with two left handed versions for those milk tanks fitted with central platforms and one right handed version so you can build a milk tank with the platforms at the end (GWR O.58 & O60). The platforms (OA.07) are £12 and there is a jig to aid construction (OA.08) is £10. It is thoroughly reccomended that you get the jig but you'll only ever need one. The following is a picture of the 4mm version, the 7mm one is just as good!
All of the above are in stock. For more details see the links in the above text or visit the new Rumney Models website.
