You could try with your millie and a wagon.

Nat

oops sorry, its a Jane you have isnt it?

In any case, the dimensions of the loco are the same.

pauly

no I have a millie and a jane

I think he ment buffer to buffer I mean wheel to wheel

DLR

i think it should fit easily if not make a bigger turntable

pauly

I dont think you understand just how hard it was to make this the concept is simple but to make 1 that actually works and doesnt just look the part was really hard so I aint gonna be making another 1

surely someone on here has a mamod with tender who can give me the measurements

It should be an easy fit on the turntable - the Jane only has a very short wheelbase so there's a fair amount of overhang at the front approx a couple of inches and the couplers too.

pauly

not a jane by itself a mamod engine with a tender attached.

DLR

well if you have to make a new turntable have a look here, but ive checked and it will fit

To answer your original question: -

Front Driving Axle on old style Mamod or MSS to rear axle on tender is 10 3/8"

Front Buffer on loco to rear buffer on tender is 15 3/16".

So it will fit but you need to allow for the overhanging bodywork, etc.
