We’ve just bought a part built 3 1/2″ gauge 3 cylinder LMS Jubilee 4-6-0. Any suggestions as to possible plans for this loco as we’ve been unsuccessful in finding plans for this loco?

Hi amorrison, I don’t know if any plans were made for a 3 1/2″ Jubilee, LBSC did a 2 1/2″ Jubilee class, with the name of Olympiade, and drawings can be had from Olympiade There was also a 5″ version called Galantea, and plans for that can be found at http://www.blackgates.co.uk/ But there was a Scot 3 1/2″ gauge By Henry Greenly, which is similar https://www.kennions.co.uk/royal-scot

Regards Nick.

Hi MichaelR, the Reeves Jubilee is a 2-6-4 tank loco. Designed by Martin Evens, but does utilize some of LBSC’s standard castings.

Regards Nick.

From memory, which nowadays can be a bit iffy, I believe the 3.5″ Jubilee was called Doris by LBSC. I’m sure others on here will confirm or deny.

Hi, yes Duncan is correct, Doris is a black five, which was a 5MT loco, However, I’ve just looked at LBSC’s Olympiade notes, and on the first page he gives instructions of how to build it in 1 3/4″ 2 1/2″ 3 1/2″ and 5″gauges.

Regards Nick.

Thanks to everyone who has replied to my email, I am most grateful as I was unable to find anything which seemed relevant. As Nick has suggested it does seem to be a 3 1/2″ gauge version of LBSC’s Olympiade. I will get in touch with Reeves for the drawings and will get onto the 2 1/2″ Gauge Society who seem to have LBSC’s “words and music”. The first step will be to check what we have got.

Regards,

Alasdair
