Not sure about that, but they developed their own range of loco kits which
were enhanced in quality when they bought 'Model Loco' and incorporated
their kits into the DJH range.

Wish you wouldnt do this. Thought would have a look at some of the adverts
in 1970's MRC's. Didnt find anything on this but did get reminded GEM did a
Compound and 999.
But did raise a question of did DJH start out by selling built K's locos ?

Cheers,
Simon

Has anyone actually got an old "GEM" catalogue?
I've got catalogues like "W&H Ltd" which show GEM products,
but a complete listing of what was produced over the years
would be interesting.

I'm sure there was an "Experiment" way back, but it would
now need a chassis to stand in for the Tri-ang one.

Add a K's coal tank and theres enough for a modest LNWR layout. If willing
to do etched locos then with London Road models can have a good set of LNWR.

cheers,
Simon
