No e-mail listed for him in his literature, but if you send him a letter, he will send you his literature packet of models, prices, etc. Calling by telephone might be a little difficult as he is quite deaf, and his wife has to assist. His models are the best, and whatever you buy and finish will be very satisfying.He has 3 different sizes of the Galloway[1/4, 1/3, and 1/6 scale ] and his all have igniters.

Exclamation Re: galloway model engine

Dick now rarly sells finished models. He is getting on in age, and has a hard time doing the machine work. When he does do one though - it is a work of art All his assembled engines are museum quality, and you pay for what you get. I have helped him many times over the years, and have purchased several casting kits. I had hime machine and finish a NANZY engine for me - it took 13 years, but it was worth the wait. It truly is a museum piece. Finish like glass, all parts align and work perfectly, and all to exact scale. He is a true machinist! His casting kits are top notch, and his blue prints are a piece of work as well.

fyi that Richard is selling 4 sizes. scales are 1/3, 1/4, 1/6, and 1/8.

I known Richard at shows for some years and I has all 4 different sizes from him.

Richard hadnt finished his own 1/8 yet. photo is 2004 and I has seen him in 2006, was nearly complete. I guess maybe finished by next show


here a photo - from 1/3 to smallest 1/8. (left to right)
