I have plenty of long haul locos but wanted a small shunter for the switchyard, not easy in PF to fit everything in a small package so managed to come up with this. Still waithing on a couple of windows but otherwise all done for now.

Very nice work!

Diesel shunter is a train category that I like!

aw, look that cute little critter, well done and I doubt you could get much smaller.

Very nice little moc, mind if I ask where you got the bottom train part from? It looks beautiful.

Thanks all.

The bottom is the PF train motor, I have added 1x2 logs at each end to fill in the gaps to the buffers, the base is made up of plates, there is a gap in the middle to clear the top of the motor. Unfortunately I didnt have spare cow catcher buffers at present, might have to get some.

Bring on the Diesel Shunters I say, much overlooked class of engine so nice to see another one on here.

Nice little shunter. You did a great job getting all the PF in there.

nice work getting battery box, motor and receiver on board. Looks good.

Is it intentionally an approximation of a BR Class-02? I have a place in my heart for these little diesel hydraulic engines.

Great little engine, perhaps a stupid question but did you also fit a IR-receiver in it?

I am not sure on that one but I do remember little shunters on some local sidings, private company owned.

Yes. If you look closely you can see it thru the window

It does look abit like a BR Class 2 or even a Class 1 for that matter as they are both small compact twin axle shunters of roughly the same size.
