LEEDS MODELS CONTINUING
'Leeds Models Continuing' is the more descriptive name now given to our spares/repairs/restoration activity. This is supported by a large, (but not comprehensive), stock of both original used and unused LMC parts for locomotives, coaches, wagons, signals and track. This stock is augmented by newly manufactured parts using either original LMC patterns or re-engineered tools and dies following the original as closely as possible, but using brass, pewter or white metal instead of ‘Newalloy’ and other pressure die cast zinc alloys. Tinplate parts where appropriate are precision laser cut and press formed.
LMC/STEDMAN MODELS IN ORIGINAL OR RESTORED CONDITION
Assistance is available to those seeking to dispose of their Leeds/Stedman models. Models wanted to complete or improve the archive collection may be purchased outright. For models currently available see Sales.
LMC/STEDMAN PARTS, LITHOGRAPHS, CATALOGUES ETC
We are willing to purchase at a fair price unwanted LMC/Stedman parts and lithographs which may be used in reconstruction of models, or assist other enthusiasts to carry out their own repairs. Photocopies of most coach and wagon lithographs are available from the archive collection. Photocopies of catalogues, from 1915–1966, either specific pages or the whole, may be provided on request at commercial copying rates.
THE BOOK: 'THE LEEDS MODEL COMPANY 1912 - 2012' written and published by David Peacock is now available price £19.95. Post and packing extra.
