Model Builders
If you would prefer to have someone finish your Comet coach or loco kits for you we offer the following listing of builders and painters, all of whom have experience in constructing and finishing our products. Please note, however, that Comet Models makes no recommendation or guarantee of the model makers featured here. |
ROCAR
Rod and Vera Cooper, The Halt, Roshven, Lochailort, Invernesshire PH38 4NB Tel 01687 470284
Coaches only, custom built to an astonishing level of detail. Complete kits are not used, but our sides, ends, roof section, bogie components and interior etches are combined with basic scratchbuilder materials, finished to the very highest standards. You might have to wait a while for delivery since a fixed number of coaches are finished annually. Gives you time to save up for the price. |

This GWR Collett large windowed Corridor First to Diag A20 uses our roof, sides, ends and bogie castings. No, its not a real coach |
This LMS 68' Sleeper First to D1705 uses our sides and roof section. Compare this with our own meagre efforts in the image of kit M1 in the catalogue. Not fair. |

Just like the real thing?
In case it is not obvious, the real one is at the top. So obliging of the driver to pose for the portrait below.
Here John has worked his magic on our kit LK16 for the Ivatt Class 2 2-6-0. This is but one from a batch of 9 kits built for clients, 3 each in OO, EM and P4. Number 46443 is to OO using Romford/Markits wheels and our GB1 gearbox with Mashima MH1620 motor. |
COACH SOLDERING SERVICE
Phil Ramsay is able to offer a soldering service for those of you who feel unable to carry out this fundamental part of coach construction yourselves. He offers two levels of service, Basic and Intermediate, and full details can be found on the Information Sheet which can be found in the Download section of the website. Once you have decided which coach you want to be built, download the form, print it out and send it off to Phil.
