    Does anyone know where I can get some small cylinder draincocks (for NG locos) cast or fabricated at a reasonable price? I was quoted c£2k for a pattern and 3 sets to be made up.
    Not sure if this is the correct place for this post.

    I wonder whether the Hunslet Engine Co. could help. They'll make you a whole new Quarry Hunslet if you want so they must have the patterns for suitable drain cocks.
