 Locos Locos Locos

The trouble with VR N scale is locos with mechs are not available so we have little option in running our roster.

Well, that has all changed! The latest release of 6 locomotives (5 T class - H class) allows modellers to run a larger roster even if powered mechs are unavailable. How’s that?  Each kit comes with a dummy rolling chassis that allows the builder to complete it to run on your railway and when in the future you obtain a mech you can easily convert it! For a special introductory offer, these are available at $100.00 per kit

The kits include 3D printed body and bogies with metal wheels, decals, number boards, horns, handrails, etched grill work for the body and brass wire.

T320 –T346 requires Atlas VO 1000 mech to motorise

All the other T’s and H’s require a Bachmann S2/4 to motorise

 Heaps of new products coming or landed now

Recently I released 11 new products with more to come https://www.spiritdesign.com.au/Whatsnew.html

Several brass kits have been updated to 3D versions, which will allow more builders to easily complete their rosters as the 3D prints are 1-piece bodies with only a few components to glue on.

This has allowed 6 versions of the T class including T413 dynamic braked unit and the Y class.  What's more, I have now developed dummy units so all the above will be available with running chassies.  So, if you can't find a mech or can’t convert one these kits will allow your roster to expand with little effort and a reduced financial investment.


The dummy versions of the T's and Y's will be compatible with the DC and DCC systems you have. These will be available before Christmas as I'm printing the bodies and laser-cutting the other parts needed to complete the kits

 Well, things are finally happening again. I have a number of projects (15) that are coming to completion very soon. These include 3D versions of some wagons and carriages plus a new range of wagons, scenery items and bogies. A number of brass locos will now be 3D printed with add-on see-through grillwork to match the previous brass versions


Happy modelling - Cheers Chris
