For an elderly neighbour, who is a pretty bloody skilled at making from scratch scale wooden models from plans.

He wishes to make a model of:

The museum in Windermere has closed and when contacted have been unable to help, we understand that Keith Townsend has passed away, currently trying to contact John R Haynes in Essex.

If you can add anything which may help, please email me, email is in my profile.

Many thanks.

A quick google found this-may lead to more accurate plans if contacted?

Or contact this person to see if plans he found are still available?

The Kingston mouldings [i]near[/i] scale doesn't cut it, my neighbour requires accurate drawings.

I've emailed Ron to see if he can assist.

I've got the plans. I may even have bought them at the Steamboat Museum. Have been intending to build it for years. You're welcome to borrow them as long as you give me your solemn word that they will be returned to me.

Email address in profile.
