I suspect we are not top of their list of sites to attack but we already get attacked multiple times every day.

Clearly they do not understand that all model engineers claim to be pennyless  so little point in trying to blackmail us. Worst case is they will take down the site and we might have to revert to a backup which would mean we would loose a few days of posts

The one line explaination in each section header is there to try to help people understand the sort of posts that should go in a section, it is not designed to limit what goes in that section. And yes the headers are not always adhered to by the posters.  When that happens we can always move it later to a more appropriate section later.

I assume the OP has got himself a set of plans as he has not returned to the forum since he posted his initial enquiry.

I am left wondering what happened for Reeves to refuse to sell him anything  They are normally very good and send out replacement castings if there is a problem without a quibble.

Nearly forgot: Mark Burkhard's 5" 1985 Drawings/Castings from Atelier MB has four matching wheels for the engine 

However not to be out done Reeves sold me a set of 6 wheels for the tender

David Piddington drew up the  7 1/4" Locomotion while he worked for Reeves. It has "features"  They are the only suppliers of those castings.

Atelier MB does a 5" model of the Locomotion originally drawn up in 1985. https://www.ateliermb.ch/shops/gussteile/ch/contents/en-uk/d12.html

The 7 1/4" model has cylinders the size of a 5" Tich so think of it as a static model.

I have some castings for the 7 1/4 version
