Graupner Glasgow Side Wheel Paddle Tug 1:40

Graupner Glasgow Side Wheel Paddle Tug 1:40 Scale Kit for Radio Control

This model of the paddler tug Glasgow has been designed to 1:40 scale using English drawings. The scarce information available on the history and career of this tug indicates that it was mainly operated in ports of Northern England and Scotland.
The modeller has the option of powering his model with an electric motor or - just like the fullsize vessel - with a steam engine. All difficult to fashion parts, such as hull, paddle wheel covers, life boat, skylights, companionways, pressure vents etc. are moulded of ABS plastic. The wood parts all come pre-shaped. Building time is further shortened by the many injection-moulded ABS plastic parts of the set of fittings (No. 582), such as winch anchor, bollards, davits, engine room telegraph etc., as well as the brass rail stanchions.

Pack contents:
Quickbuild plan with R/C installation and imprinted building instructions in Dutch, English, French and German. Extruded hull, wheel covers, life boat, skylights, companionways, pressure vents and other ABS plastic moulded parts, printed and die-cut wood parts, such as bulkheads, deck superstructures, bridge deck etc., moldings, dowels, wire, eye pins, belaying pins, decals, miscellaneous parts.
