Title: Q1T - The Tank Engine That Never Was Post by: grahame on June 16, 2026, 07:42:23 An article by Nick Feast. (https://www.bulleidlocos.org.uk/(S(y50gzmoqfomt2j2ghc4cryl1))/_q1/q1Nick_tank.aspx)
Quote A fellow member of Bournemouth Model Engineers had started to build a Q1 to my design several years ago. However the project was offered to me, and although I had already completed 2 locomotives as detailed in the Model Engineer series in 2009, I thought I could make use of a third one! I had an idea in the back of my mind that I had seen a drawing of a proposed 0-6-4 tank engine in print somewhere but couldn't find it, so went ahead with my own interpretation of what a Q1 tank might have looked like.
