Re: Gresley Coach buffers
I don't have any info on oval buffers, but these pics might help.
Re: Gresley Coach buffers
For the oval buffers 1'7" x 1'0 1/2"
Re: Gresley Coach buffers
Thanks for the oval dimensions Mike. Now all I need is the size of the "clipped" portion of the round buffer. Thanks also to Dave & 65447.
Its been very nice today in the western part of East Anglia !

Re: Gresley Coach buffers
Clipped buffer size = 9" radius, flat is 6¼" up from radius centre.
Front face radius = 3'-3¾"
Rear face radius = 2'-0"
