The LNER Encyclopedia

Im contemplating an etched locomotive kit in OO gauge. Can the forum help with advice on a suitable first build preferably ex NER, NBR, LNER or North Sunderland in origin.
I am reasonably competent with a soldering iron and feel ready to take the plunge. Does the forum reccomend starting with a simpler wagon kit first or are modern kits easy enough to erect.

Lochgorm models do an LNER/LMS beginners van that if you buy more than one are only £6.00. You need to get castings for them but these are availble from various sources - MJT, ABS etc. I have three of them on stock that I haven't built yet but they are listed as being designed for the beginer to etched kits. In fairness at £6.00 you can't go far wrong.

I have no connection to Lochgorm other than as a satisfied customer.

Thanks for prompt response.
