Modelling

The Oxford Area Group, like any other part of the 2mm Association enjoys a bit of modelling. Whether it be simply rewheeling a ready to run wagon to totally scratchbuilding a locomotive we produce things. This page is to show off what we have been and are upto. The models belong to individuals but can usually be seen on WS Iron.

Julia's class 02 built from a Worsley Works rtched kit on a scratchbuilt chassis using association parts, a 47:1 gearbox, and a 816 Faulhaber motor.

The second of Julia's engines and slightly larger than the 02. The 2mm Associations class 08 shunter kit bult here to portray a late 50's, early 60's loco. The picture on the right is showing it working hard on Jim Allwoods layout 'Welton Down'

Two of Marks locomotives. The engine on the left is a Johnson Tank loco and believe it or not was scratch built in 2 weeks! It has a plasticard body and the chassis is built using 2mm Association parts.
The engine on the right is a reworked Jubilee. The body is a modified PECO body while the chassis in built from a Nigel Hunt etch with association parts to complete.

Some conversions from ready to run models by Brian. The locomotives on the left are ready for the paint shop and the picture on the right shows a couple of finished examples
