Traction tyres - Hornby Dublo diesels & EMUs.

F44 - New/unused/repro items. They are the correct square cross-section (c.1mm square) so fit HD wheels extremely well, they run well, and are cream coloured.

Diameter of wheel (groove) they typically fit:  13mm.

Unstretched internal diameter: 8.0mm.

Unstretched width: 1.35mm +/- 0.05mm.

Unstretched thickness (depth): 0.8mm.

ONE PACK BOUGHT BY DR. TWO PACKS BOUGHT BY NB. TWO PACKS BOUGHT BY NB.

Traction tyres - generic OO type.

These are made from the same cream coloured material as the type above, but have a slightly larger diameter. These are brand new traction tyres which are suitable for many OO gauge diesel locomotives and tender-driven steam locos.

Triang Spares - Bulbs for Tri-ang colour light signals. I'm much more of a Hornby Dublo supplier, but am aware that all of the above bulbs are identical to the original Triang bulbs, part numbers S6284 (green) and S6285 (red). They will fit the R573 double track gantry, and also its single post equivalent the RT405 / R405. They do not fit the later Hornby Railways version, which uses screw-in bulbs instead. I understand that they will also fit the Marklin and Fleischmann systems.

Some feedback about the bulbs: "Many thanks for the bulbs. They do indeed fit the oldest type Hornby Colour Light Signals and give a nice realistic colour and tone."

P16

P16 - I can currently supply Hornby Dublo armatures for vertical-motored locos from stock on an exchange basis. These are newly rewound and fully refurbished by a specialist in this field - as good as new, essentially. They are first class items. But, in order to be able to do this, I will need your identical burned-out armature in part-exchange. Price is £23.80 plus your burned-out equivalent armature in part-exchange.

I'll need to know which type you have in order to check availability and allocate against your order:

ARMATURES FOR VERTICAL MOTORS - THE TYPES BELOW - ARE THE ONLY ONES AVAILABLE

Vertical motors - 36mm N2 (0-6-2T) type - coarse gearing. ONE BOUGHT BY SF. ONE BOUGHT BY CU. ONE BOUGHT BY GM.  (Available from stock).

If you aren't able to supply an armature in part-exchange, please enquire.

If you're outside the United Kingdom, please complete the Customs Declaration showing that the burned-out armature(s) you're sending have no commercial value / are a gift. This will avoid me having to pass the customs charges on the part-exchange (typically £15) back to you.

F44

Type 1

Tyre Details - Table

Traction tyres - Hornby Dublo diesels & EMUs.

F44 - New/unused/repro items. These are shown on the left side of the photo They are the correct square cross-section (c.1mm square) so fit HD wheels extremely well, they run well, and are cream coloured. "The tyres work extremely well - better than the originals!" "Hi, I bought these tyres off you recently. They are brilliant. I checked your listings this morning and see there are none listed. Any time you have some more in stock you have a ready buyer here. Regards". "These are the best tyres"... "Excellent. Fit better than the originals. Thank you"..."The traction tyres work really well on my BOBO and COBO so I would like to fit them to my two Deltics."..."Thanks John They work a treat"..."Hi bought 2 packs recently very impressed with performance so buying further sets for spares."..."Best tyres yet- fitted 2x class 20's no problem; recommend a try- many thanks ++"..."Many thanks for sending the Traction Tyres so promptly. I have fitted them to my locos and they work extremely well, in fact the CO-CO loco hauls 20 heavy goods wagons with ease!"

Diameter of wheel (groove) they typically fit:  13mm.

Unstretched internal diameter: 8.0mm.

Unstretched width: 1.35mm +/- 0.05mm.

Unstretched thickness (depth): 0.8mm

Generally supplied in packs of 6 (£6.70) although other quantities can be supplied. (25% discount for 4 or more packs). (Several equivalent items are usually available). (95p postage only on this item).

A cautionary tale - it's essential to clean out the groove before fitting the tyres: "John, I did as you suggested and found that what I thought was smooth metal was in fact the remains of a very badly worn previous set of tyres. Problem solved ! The loco is now working permanently nose-to-nose with another one, and last night at our HRCA meeting they pulled 42 wagons plus a brake van, so there are obviously no adhesion issues now !

Tyre Details - Table

These are made from the same cream coloured material as the type above, but have a slightly larger diameter. These are brand new traction tyres which are suitable for many OO gauge diesel locomotives and tender-driven steam locos.

Tyre Details - Table

Traction tyres - larger-wheeled N gauge steam locos.

These are made from the same cream coloured material as the OO tyres. These are brand new traction tyres which are suitable for many N gauge steam locos - pacifics and similar. The photo shows one tyre stretched over a socket with the same diameter as the driving wheels of a Minitrix Britannia which is shown for comparison (but is not included in the sale).

Diameter of wheel (groove) they typically fit:  9 - 11mm.

"Just what was needed to fit old atlas/Rivarossi Diesels".

"Great for lima class 31"

"Received safe and sound thanks - fit a lima 31 perfectly."

"Thanks. Product arrived in good condition this morning. Good to see my 45 year old Lima N gauge diesel running successfully again."

"Thankyou for the tyres. They fit my Lima class 31 well."

"Hi, I recently bought a set of n gauge diesel traction tyres. Just to let you know that I have changed the tyres this afternoon and it has made my lima deltic a totally different locomotive. It is at this very moment pulling 16 coaches with very little effort and a good turn of speed. Many many thanks,"

"Just received traction tyres and they fit my Lima class 55 Deltic perfectly so thanks very much for your help"

"Bought a set of traction trees for my lima Cl 86s. both now running like a dream. Excellent value for money."

From a different purchaser: "Lima class 86 is running very nicely now, it pulled 8 coaches with ease, have not tried any more than 8 yet... " and then "It has improved it immensely, tried it with 10 coaches and it still pulled very well, no slipping at all!".

"Cheers John, received this morning. N gauge Lima Deltic now gripping nicely, no more wheel spinning. Regards."

"Thank you Thank you all arrived yesterday morning in the post tip top condition fitted locos perfect. Could not be more pleased with the service and product. Once again thanks and will order again if needed."

Then finally "I have decided to do all my minitrix class 47s with the tyres now, and my other lima trains too, so impressed I was with the Lima 86 I did recently". Also "Hi, thanks. These tyres work a treat, I m using them on my Lima n gauge class 31 s...of which I have quite a few".

However, evidently they don't suit Farish or Kato models because the depth of tyre is deeper than the wheel flange - the inside diameter is spot on for Farish class 47, 50, 55 etc, but the outside diameter is a little too large.

"Excellent , better than the Lima tyres."

J52A

J52B

J52C

FOUR SETS BOUGHT  BY BB.  J52 - Fishplates / rail joiners to suit Hornby Dublo. I got rather fed up with cannibalising my poorer track to find fishplates to fit the coarse rail profile of my 3 rail track, so I've found some that fit. They do fit tightly though, so you'll need to carefully tap them into place, and that's a good thing because it means there will be excellent electrical conductivity. The photographs show my first attempt. You can see the before and after photos, and the fishplate before and after it's been fitted. I've also shown it fitted on 2 rail track. £6.50 for set of 10 fishplates (other quantities can be supplied). Track not included. (Several equivalent items are usually available).

ONE SET BOUGHT BY RL. Q38 - Split pins for handrails. These are a substitute for the earlier (thick) handrail type, for which they are very similar in cross-section.

(95p postage only on this item).

P55

ONE SET BOUGHT BY JC. ONE SET BOUGHT BY RL. P55 - Split pins for handrails. These are a substitute for the later (thin) handrail type, for which they are very similar in cross-section.

(The three items supplied will be equivalent to the centre screw in the photo). (95p postage only on this item).

HORNBY DUBLO SERVICE SHEETS and EAGLE CUTAWAY DRAWINGS. You can click here  to go to a page elsewhere on my site where you can find useful reference material:

All the Hornby Dublo Service Sheets are available for you to copy - save on your computer

or print them out - if you don't have the excellent Hornby Dublo companion book (Foster). 

Also, the "Eagle" comic had many really interesting big drawings of all sorts of railway operations in the 1950's, just the right vintage for Hornby Dublo. I have taken lots of photos of these, and, since they don't appear to be anywhere else on the internet, have published them as well. They show how the locomotives, equipment and operations worked in a straightforward way, usually using cutaway drawings. If you haven't seen them before, I

hope they give you as much fun as they did me.

These are all large and detailed images, you will find them all by following the above link.
