Models of TONs

Several members have built models of TONs, often scratch built, some of which are fitted with ingenious radio controls for speed, steering, navigation lights, rotating radar aerials and Bofors.

The website continues to receive requests for information about suppliers of kits of TONs.

It is understood that UK suppliers such as Airfix have discontinued the TON model but that a Japanese supplier still has one.

CAN ANYONE LET US HAVE MORE RELIABLE INFORMATION ?

Also member Howard Hollingsbee asks if any of our model makers whould be prepared to make a model of his favourite ship HMS TILFORD for him  ?

Please contact Howard on
