Nameless No More

For more years than I can remember our model of the FR's newest double engine, David Lloyd George, has been running around without nameplates.

Finally it is proudly sporting a pair...



Until recently 009 nameplates have been very hard to come by unless your kit came with them or it was one of the more popular / common prototypes, which DLG is not.
But, 009 modellers, despair no more, because in the last year or a new nameplate supplier has appeared on the horizon. Narrow Planet provide a completely bespoke, and in our experience, highly efficient service, and will design and produce plates to your exact requirements at a very agreeable price.

A number of other models are now also sporting Narrow Planet plates including Planet diesel Upnor Castle.



K1 is now fully dressed...



As is NGG16 87....

  1. They really look the part!
    There is another 009 model of DLG, bashed from a Langley kit. I made it, but it has now left my posession. The last I saw of it was on the 009 sales stand at Narrow Gauge North...

  2. Looks like you 'Upnor Castle' has more nameplates than the real engine!

  3. Chris, I stand corrected and have duly removed the claim that ours was the first DLG!
