WOW !  My two came 8.55am  and still in the PJ's signed for 'em.

Still in their box, now have to decide to open them up or have brekky etc.  

So far so good...........

So that means we have a rtr set of 3ft 6inch bogies, I guess. Wonder how many kit engines out there running on SG bogies might benefit from these "correct" bogies?
Would Haskell even consider selling bogies in packs as Auscision do?
Just a thought which might convince some established modellers with huge inventories to build their rails a touch closer together
Cheers

My 1550 is broadgauge for proper QR, ie it runs on 16.5mm gauge.  - so no spare bogies. No idea if these bogies suit other locos. I would wonmder if the bogies would be sellable on their own to repower many other QR or other 3ft 6inch prototypes. I know you only have to ask Wuiske or Haskill, they are quite approachable.

The locos are a milestone for me too, being the last loco to be purchased and paid for as  , well, I'm all but out of money, no job, no career, no prospects, and only my hobby. So no more trains for me this year - until further notice. So no P's etc.

So the locos are special to me.

Fairlight, welcome to the Queens Railway, Royalty indeed. Enjoy !

I am sure all the QR kits and RTR, you will find somehting to go behind it !

To answer Rod's question, we have not prepared extra bogies for sale (we have some spare parts, but only for repairs rather than extra sales). To be honest I think it would be quite difficult to say the least to just put them onto XYZ other mech as things like drive shafts, how they are mounted to the chassis etc may not match. For now I can only consider it as something for future consideration, not something we can offer for now. Also any decision about what to make or not make would need to be agreed upon by both Adam Wuiske and I (Kieren Haskell) as these engines are a 50/50 joint project but usually Adam and I can find common ground on what to do which has allowed us to get this far.
For wheels and bogies for wagons I think Adam and Jade at Wuiske models already has stock of those and obviously it can be a LOT easier to change wagon wheels or bogies.
To those who have posted all the nice comments about the 1550s many thanks. Always nice to see people happy with our products.

G'day Rod,

Your question had me somewhat puzzled initially, but I think I've got it pegged now. If (as I believe) you are asking about the pronounciation of our surname, it's Whiskey - spelt different, drunk the same Or as per your phonetics, "Whiskee".

Cheers,
Jade.

Some new prototype photos have been uploaded last night: K wagon, UR wagon, Camp Wagon #431 and Linville Station. http://www.wuiskemodels.com/prototype/index.php

I think all QR modellers thought this may happen.
