Does anyone know of any industry active, rolling stock 2' narrow gauge - other than the Ffestiniog stock - e.g. coal, slate, gen goods, logs etc

...but most of them aren't 2' (24" / 600mm) gauge...

Thanks chaps for your help and advice. I think there may be some 2' (or almost) amongst some of the European/Canadian/New Zealand rolling stock, that I can use to test run a line and it's industries

I guess that you do not have TRS2006. Pity!

The ore and coal cars that came with Northbay are interactive and 2 ft gauge. To go with the interactive cars you have Linda's interactive mine building and coal dumps.

You also get a 2 foot Shay and a 2 foot Garratt. Incidentally, everything should all work in TRS2004 as they were all made in that version so exporting back should be no problem.

Cheers

thanks narrowgauge

Yes I am using '06, but there is so much stuff that an occasional prod is needed in the right direction - thanks again.

Small, well very small would be closer mostly mining and one 4w and one bogie flat car, now just have to remember where I got them

Do a search with "Lore" in the seach field and the Bottom menu set to Rollingstock.

Also try a search for "600mm" thats what the europeans call 2ft.

There is more of there on another site but can't seem to access it anymore, it included a couple of small 2f5 / 600mm german mining diesals and 1 Battery loco that I thought were quite nice.

Both above with no quotes of course

Had a look through rickystyles work? What time period etc are you after? Also there is the teddytoot patent method for making things carry loads.

Thanks John

A good deal of 3ft and most 2'6" (760mm) rolling stock will convert to 2ft and look reasonably convincing - if you're not too fussy about matching couplings that is.

John,
I am re-working one of my British Landscapes layouts, preferably early to mid-twentieth century so I can get away with some diesel. The narrowguage line I have modelled is farily timeless (as is the rest of the layout, really), VERY loosely based on Ffestiniog.
