kintbury jon Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Whilst the sides have similarities, the Turbostar sides look more slanted (like a 158), the width being a lot less at the roof line. Shell wise, I wonder whether a 466 might be a starting point (with a lot of modifications!) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swifty11 Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Oh well, is there any chance you could do a 323? When I had a look my first guess was to make it from a 3 car 170 but I'm not good at scratch building. Maybe I could talk to Bratchell models and we if they can make a kit. Actually, a 175 or a 185 would look cool but I'm looking forward to seeing your new project Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swifty11 Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Can you put some videos of the 325 running on YouTube so we can see it going as I'm sure it would get well over 1,000 hits! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWJ Posted September 16, 2012 Author Share Posted September 16, 2012 Thanks for the comments chaps. Jon, you're right, the 333 has straighter sides and the roof is also more 'domed'. Swifty, no I'm afraid not, as the 325 is packed away for my forthcoming house move and I don't have a YouTube account Cheers, Will Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sub39h Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Sorry for bumping a year old thread but I just wanted to congratulate you on some fantastic modelling. The 325 is quite an interesting train and it's great to see such an excellent model of it. Keep up the good work! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WCML100 Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 sorry to comment on such an old thread but i have just read your progress from start to finish - truly inspiring! didn't think modelling the 325 was realistic for anyone but you have made the two 150's into a a brilliant outcome! well done - you haven't got one going spare would fit in perfectly on my modern era layout lol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
